It's not immediately obvious how a Twitter client could be "cute", and translating it would lose the fact that (judging by the upstream website) it's "cute" in a specifically Japanese sense - it's not talking about photos of puppies, it means cartoons of young girls... Maybe the safest translation would be "anime-themed"? >>> * Followee, Follower list >> ^^^^^^^^ >> No such word. It does seem as if it should be an unnecessary coinage - aren't the things being listed here "subscriptions"? But what is this line trying to say? Does mikutter present a single list that includes both the accounts you're following and the accounts that are following you, or does it have two separate lists? If it's the latter, why not give them a bulletpoint each? And then what is the "List view" three bullets later? It's really unclear what some of these "views" are talking about. Some of them must be different ways of viewing tweets, but then there are the ones like "Profile view". And while it's on debian-l10n-english, here are some extra stylistic nitpicks: the synopsis shouldn't be capitalised, Twitter on the other hand should be capitalised, there should be a comma before the "and" (according to our usual d-l-e house style), the long description shouldn't repeat the synopsis, and the bulletpoints don't need to be indented that far. I would suggest a package description like this: Description: simple, powerful anime-themed Twitter client Mikutter is a multi-pane Twitter client with several advanced features: * different tweet views (flat list, threaded list, searches); * user profile and activity views; * lists of followers and subscriptions. WARNING: some of that is guesswork, and needs to be replaced by an accurate description.
