I don't see the special case here. Either the two-men rule makes sense
or not. If you want to change it, discussion and vote is the accepted
approach in a project.

Hey. I just pointed him to the document describing the current process
of adding a new translation. He didn't come back to ask for an
exception to the two-men rule. He just immediately severed his ties to
the project altogether!
