[tei-council] contact for i18n work

[Gabriel Bodard]

On this note, since just saying "volunteers are welcome" is obviously 
inadequate (and I *know* that's not all we're doing), should we be 
trying to be more proactive in pursuing i18n? Perhaps even consider 
paying something (from our obviously unlimited code bounty pot) to help 
some communities get started?
