This is a good new. > The bsd license is not valid for our installation (but it is for the > general version), we accept only our ICLA license (committers only). This is the point: other contributions. Today we have two levels of contribution, but and if we have translators that wish to use Pootle without sign a ICLA? This is the good point (IMHO) at launchpad. When you register your self in there tool, you check/agree that all your work will be licensed under BSD. I understand that this process can be adopted by us, Ipsis litteris, changing the license by Apache. I took a look fast in Pootle docs and saw that exist condition to enable other permissions for users and I think that is possible to create profiles. IMO, is possible to enable more one profile, of translator (without ICLA, but agreed in registration time with donate his work to ASF/project). The main point is collect more volunteers with translation skill (in some times is the *unique* thing that can help), and giving to him an idea about how works the project. In a second time (and with interaction with his l10n team or the project at all), he can sign the ICLA and will be promoted to commiter, with more "powers". ;-) > HOWEver, I hope with the new infra structure to provide a platform for > non-committers to use pootle in a motivating way, this depend however on a > vote in the community. I think that we have the same idea, Janl. And using your "way" (with images) in new propose for l10n, i did a flow explaining my idea[1].
