I think we could go further now if we plan the changes largely in
advance and if it would be possible to make the changes in 3 or 4 steps
instead of a big one. Knowing it in advance will allow translators to
organize their work between the different open source projects they
contribute to.
Olivier, we will discuss the help topic during the l10n workshop at
LibOCon, would it be possible that you explain the process to the group
during Tuesday afternoon? Then I'll discuss with the team to push the
project further.
Cheers
Sophie
