Thank you for the enthusiasm, it's good to feel this excitement :)

I have made a test with a mailing list in Italian and testing a new way 
to create mailing lists.  There are still some small issues to address, 
like the GUI is getting mixed English and Italian, but this may be good 
enough to start.

Basically what you need to do to create a new mailing list is to:

  - clone the openstack-infra/config repository
https://github.com/openstack-infra/config

$ git clone git at github.com:openstack-infra/config.git

- follow the gerrit workflow: create a branch


Make sure you have the latest upstream changes:

git remote update
git checkout master
git pull origin master


git checkout -b VIETNAMESE #for example

More details and instructions on how to use git review on the wiki: 
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GerritWorkflow

- edit the file modules/openstack_project/manifests/lists.pp adding 
something along the lines:

maillist { 'openstack-vi':
           ensure      => present,
	  admin       => 'YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS',
	  password    => $listpassword,
           description => 'DESCRIPTION OF THE LIST IN VIETNAMESE',
           webserver   => $listdomain,
	  mailserver  => $listdomain,
	 }

- make sure that you use spaces, not tabs; and make sure that the => are 
aligned in the editor

- commit the changes

  $ git commit -a
  $ git review

Send a message to this mailing list with the rewiew URL and somebody of 
the Infrastructure team will review it.

If you're not already familiar with git review and prefer not to learn 
it, I can create the list for you. Let me know what you prefer.
