I also support the policy's relaxation for committers/PMC, and Pierre got it right regarding the original intent. I think of a supported language as a "niche", in the sense that a very few people will be able to maintain it properly in the long term. I support the statement that we could trust committers for that, and I would like to recall that the policy is essentially just a framework to achieve long term maintenance. As every other source code in the repository, the policy is always open for improvements according to the community's needs at the time :) Nontheless, even if we don't have lazy concencus - I do support at least announcing the addition of new languages and its owners in the dev. list, so everyone would be aware of them.
+1 from me for adding the French language and its suggested owners!
