Hi, This conversation (and the other one) is quite high high traffic which explains the lack of an earlier response from me and other i18n coordinators. That and the lack of motivation to argue one more time about this topic when, as someone mentioned already, this was already discussed (which also makes the “lack of love” comment difficult to accept).

This is the heart of the problem. What you describe as unnecessary is the strength of the platform and what we are fighting to keep. That “simpler workflow” leads to a significant decrease in quality and a significant increase in coordinator workload. Our defense of our current high standards is us actually showing our love of GNOME translations. Before you make any comment about the lack of love, or how you’re +1 for tool X because it makes you save a few minutes here and there and might make you gain a few strings from random contributors, please think this through and maybe try to understand the position of those in charge. I’ll have to interject as well regarding “plans” and asking stuff from the sysadmins. While Emmanuele is correct in a general sense, we still have a team of coordinators and not moving to another platform should not be mistaken for a lack of plan or decision: it is a conscious decision. If someone wants to improve things, a proposal is welcome. Moving to X (which seems to be Weblate these days) is not a plan, it is a request and we disagree with it. -- Alexandre Franke GNOME i18n coordinator _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
