I don't really see the point of adding this to Mailman, and
keeping this patch open in the patch queue.
Why is it important to disable all languages except english ?

Partially it's a size-of-distro issue. Fully i18n Mailman
is huge. The other problem is that providing patches for
micro releases is a pain because of the binary .mo files.

How about something like the attached patch then ? That,
with something like 'make english_install' or 'smallinstall'
or whatever, could be used to install only the english
templates/messages. I would say it adds only minimal
overhead to regular Mailman, and it makes installing
languages as a separate package a lot easier.
