Hallo. Good to hear your feedback.

As Alaa mentioned, you can work on the permissions.  with previous
versions of Pootle, the 'pootle' project was required for the localised
interface. This is not necessary anymore - you can use .mo files if you
want, and then you can remove the Pootle project if you don't want
anyone to touch it.

Pootle should react well to file changes on-disk, especially if no files
were added/removed. If files were added/removed, you need to rescan from
the web interface.

You can try to put the correct directory in your PYTHONPATH environment
variable.  All directories in the Pootle/ directory is automatically in
your environment, so you could try to just create a symbolic link, as
Alaa suggested.

Sure, you can ask here. Maybe there is a slightly more technical
audience in the translate-devel mailing list, whereas this has
previously been somewhat more for Pootle users.  It doesn't really
matter either way.  Of course the gettext project also has a mailing
list if you want to ask for help there.

Keep well
