I completely disagree, Github.com should NOT be localized.
I agree that making sure your language doesn't disappear is important, but it has nothing to do with Github. It is your job on a day to day basis.
Having localized versions might lead to messy projects having multiple languages in issues and everywhere. It will not help the open source community as a whole but dilute it. It may be sad, but English is the language of IT and I think it will just lead to a wider and better community to all talk a single language, whatever it is.
Plus, managing multiple locales in an app just sucks, it will lead to problems, they would have less time to work on feature which is the point.
Maybe a localized version of Github Enterprise would make sense, but certainly not Github.com.
