I assume shared-mime-info isn't accepting translations submitted via Fedora Transifex, but still via the Translation Project. At least in the past, I successfully updated translation for shared-mime-info using the latter one infrastructure. Also see the following page, it states that it doesn't "allow file submissions": https://translate.fedoraproject.org/tx/projects/shared-mime-info/HEAD/ > manage transations.

Yep, actually I was referring about these issues last year on this list already. Nothing has changed, unfortunately. > Can we, the GNOME Translation Project, try to lobby freedesktop.org > asking to provide a proper infrastructure for translations of "shared" > stuff (mostly hosted on freedesktop itself)? Well, I'm afraid freedesktop.org in itself can't do anything in this case. It's just an infrastructure, not a project. > PS yes, I know about TP, but it seems that developers and maintainers > don't like it :( So please, first of all try to change the current state of the TP, so everybody will love it. It's the Translation Project which is a proper place for l10n of various upstream projects, unlike e.g. the GTP which is connected to a downstream project, i.e. GNOME. Trying to provide yet another l10n infrastructure means nothing but reinventing the wheel.
