I agree in principle with what you said but here are things i would also recomend: - pootle profile should link to email not just a nick with stats - bugzilla is the main use of bugs and for a user should be a main destination, not everyone knows pootle or should know it. - Should verify that the bugzilla l10n - sv component point to a real person.
