Ok, that seems useful. Currently the history is kept indefinitely, but I suppose it would be useful to remember to last 20 packages translated. And it's not really important who did what, but more just for keeping an eye on things. > Also when we have different packages in the process of translation which > share a paragraph, we might wait for the consensus on one translation > and when that passes the review all other paragraphs get a uniform > translation. I have thought that for the automatic fetching to exclude descriptions that share an untranslated paragraph with a pending translation. Ofcourse if you manually fetch it's a risk, but I suppose a warning could be displayed. > I surely wouldn't like to see a mandatory approval of all translations by > one "cohordinator/manager" for all languages (one for each of course). I'm trying to make mechanism not policy. I'm currently leaning towards a sort of points system, where the language coordinator can specify points for reviews/translations. So if a translator-review is zero points, then translators can't review a translation. But if you want to treat coordinator/translators/anonymous the same, then that's possible too. > When we don't agree on a translation we usually do a "democratic vote" > either by email or in the comment field.....

Like I said earlier, there's an is_admin flag that doesn't appear to be set anywhere... But it appears to be used by some teams, so it must be possible.
