Well, for one think I can include translations for languages that are NOT present in central translating project. For example I feel confident to make slovak translation of my debconf-templates and dpkg descriptions :-) While I can just translate the templates and that's all that is required, I cannot do the same with descriptions. But, why not go both ways? Have both mechanism for decentralized translations, and also the central repository, and make the former have bigger priority than the latter (in case of conflict) -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | Radovan Garabik http://melkor.dnp.fmph.uniba.sk/~garabik/ | | __..--^^^--..__ garabik @ melkor.dnp.fmph.uniba.sk | ----------------------------------------------------------- Antivirus alert: file .signature infected by signature virus.
