As already other translators have answered, this is done automagically as soon as someone for a particular language goes in to translate your project. No need to worry about that. I saw that you chose an "open" permission for your translations: this could be a good idea for the beginning, if you want more people to get involve and a lot of new languages coming in. The drawback here is that usually translations tend to be of a low quality if they are not under a little bit of control by approved translation teams. I would like to suggest you to read also the description of the other policies [1], and maybe in the future consider to move your project to a "structured" policy. > Question 2: I *think* I've set up the automatic translation > import/export correctly, but I was hoping someone from this list with > experience could double-check I've got it right. > > Reading the docs, I set up a branch called > lp:~nova-core/nova/translations and set the trunk branch lp:nova to be > the exporting branch. Is this correct? I'm not 100% sure, last time I did this was a while back for another project, but yes, you should be ready to go. Also, as others said, if you could give us a little description of the project, that would be much appreciated. Ciao.
