I personally prefer to see the translations I do in their right

we can may be focus on a process to get translations visible faster when
ready.
There is an Hack Call on the 12th to talk about that.
Transifex is capable of syncing but if it's already decided to head for
Weblate then we need not discuss further. I can only applaud the use
of a GPL licensed tool.
I am not sure someone can decide for others :) What is done is opening
tools. Time should decide what is the natural main one according to the
ease of use and efforts done on each ones. Here are the trends so far:
- Quick base: Transifex translations manually uploaded to GitHub. GitHub
been where maintainers are working to implement in Plinth.
- Search for a free tool easily sync with GithUb: Weblate sync account
has been created. It will be adverstise on /Translate for newcomers and
Debian translators discussion list as a main tool since they don't have
to do anything more than translate to get their effort in GitHub.
In a nutshell, langages already on Transifex can stay on this platform
if they feel confortable with that. In the process, i may ask if they
are ok to swithc though, but each coordinator is free to work where it
is the best for them and the maintainers. We'll see if that free will
process is working well.
I'll cope with git+emacs in a terminal but not everyone is like that,
I know. For the moment I think it would be too much work to support
and maintain multiple tools. I'd settle with one and see how it spins
off.
If you think this process is the best for you, it should be considered
then. Along with a wiki page for all langages status in order to
newscomers being aware your language is already done and updated.
