Thanks a lot for your analysis, I jump on two subjects:

# Topic: naming and conventions
I'm aware that there's an ongoing translation from German to English.
In this translation and renaming, is there any plan/agreement to also
look at harmful and exclusionary language[3]?
For example, looking at the GitHub project the main branch is called
"master".
Some comments are also affected by a similar non inclusive writing like
for example here [4] where the comment states "the bookmarks aren't
deleted and the user is request to confirm, that he wants to create a"
and there's the assumption that the user can be only a male.
This one is something I would like we work on, have inclusive language
all over our pages, so thanks for mentioning it.
I've added this link to our wiki for reference:
https://www.linuxfoundation.org/research/the-2021-linux-foundation-report-on-diversity-equity-and-inclusion-in-open-source
I think we, as a inclusive community, should show and be exemplary here

# Topic: localization
The proposal mentions the move of the localization to Weblate. There's
also an open issue intended for modernizing the localization environment
from "one config file" to .po files[10].
Which is the potential timeline for having the localization on Weblate?
Is there any ongoing discussion with the L10N team at LibreOffice?
Should the L10N community consider also WollMux as a priority project to
be translated with high priority like LibreOffice (UI, Help, Guides)?
There is no discussion currently on the l10n list. In my view it's not
needed right now as there is a lot of translation that have to happen in
the code (and we are not far from a major release too).
Thorsten confirmed yesterday that it's an extension. Our l10n team
doesn't translate external extensions or it will be a never ending work
that could hamper translation of UI and help files with any extension
creator requesting translation.
What is possible and already happened, is to post the request for
translation to the l10n list with a link to the files. That way, it
doesn't make the translation mandatory for the teams like UI and help are.
Cheers
Sophie
