I don't think he/she has to be bilingual, since practically everyone uses
English as the standard language here (Lugnet). If the need to make posts in
other languages arises, then I'm sure *someone* can help the curator
translating.
(I know I can, for Portuguese at least)

Speaking for .pt : NO, not at all. After we get the initial "notice", then
we can follow up in our native language. If there is a need to discuss
*outside* .pt, then English is the standard language anyway, so...
I'm confident this logic can be used by other .loc groups, if nothing else
for convenience of everyone.
