That sounds promising. Let hope it will be not such disappointing as 2.6
was. :)

I see it has major interface change. It is unclear for me if it still
would be possible to have overall overview where I can see list of
projects with statuses, and list of languages with statuses, it is a good
thing to see for both developers and translators.

>From developer point of view I would need to be able to do sync from GIT
to Pootle and do sync from Pootle to GIT at some point (on templates
update or before software release respectively) so developer should have
access to do it at will. As for daily sync without any intervention from
translators, that should be very good for them: from translator point of
view those additional clicks are confusing for newbies but if translator
forgets to do it, that brings problems later.

>Thanks, and apologies again for the long delay in this upgrade.

    Cheers,
