Perhaps if you put all the localisation data for each language into a
separate file that is searched for in the root directory of the
floppy, then people could download a localisation file separately and
copy it onto the floppy. It wouldn't then matter so much which
localisations are included with the standard floppy image. Also, it
would be possible to add and update localisations without rereleasing
the floppy image.
When implementing something like that you should be careful to treat
all languages symmetrically, so you can correct a typo in the English
version without having to update every other language as a
consequence.
Of course, this doesn't answer the question of what to do with woody's
boot-floppies.
