I'm shocked. Of course translators hold copyright in their translations (unless they have signed a contract assigning their rights to a third party -- are you sure that is not the case for the bug report?) A translation is without question an original expressive work, and under applicable law and international treaty, the translator holds copyright. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
