I understood. When I use comments is when I need a response, so I will try to use the mention or issue flag. 2020年4月19日(日) 5:24 Harsh Shandilya : > > April 19, 2020 1:38 AM, "Jason A.

Same goes for me, I'll take whatever's the easiest route for translators and work with it. > I suppose one advantage of Crowdin is that the discussions are placed > beside the translations, which makes it easy for future people to > correlate the two, and most discussions tend to be clarifications on > particular strings, rather than interesting technical conversation > that would benefit from the archiving afforded by mailing lists. > > AFAICT, the "issue" flag sends us an email notification, which is a > good thing if you need an answer. > > Jason Harsh Shandilya

I suppose one advantage of Crowdin is that the discussions are placed beside the translations, which makes it easy for future people to correlate the two, and most discussions tend to be clarifications on particular strings, rather than interesting technical conversation that would benefit from the archiving afforded by mailing lists. AFAICT, the "issue" flag sends us an email notification, which is a good thing if you need an answer. Jason

The second option is perfectly fine, though you'll have better luck if you mention me or Jason since that will ensure Crowdin does not swallow up the notifications. > Kind regards, > Eiji Tanioka
