Hi, Via the following question : https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/rosetta/+question/64194 I found out that the Ubuntu Dutch translation team is somehow closed and is asking new translators to work upstream.
I don't know what to think but in my opinion Ubuntu translators team should be opened for new translators working both upstream or downstream. Many upstream projects accept new translations only for development version, and for example it is hard to push upstream a GNOME translations from Hardy. There are also a couple of packages only available in Ubuntu. In the thread, Bert Van de Poel states that "all the (dutch team) members think that translating on launchpad isn't useful and that I should translate upstream (but that isn't always possible so)." What do you say? Do you have any suggestions about how we could help him? Maybe Bert Van de Poel could have sent the translations upstream, and maybe they are not Ubuntu specific, but I feel like we could find a solution and encourage his contribution as a Ubuntu translator.
