Which means that the translators are no longer integrated into the translation workflow for the site.

I really don't see the point in moving a draft into production position if we don't have a view on how the problems are going to be addressed in future. For better or worse, most long-term maintenance ends up in always the same hands, so fly-by changes tend to have a lot of repercussions. Without a view on how to address in the long run, we are likely to end up worse than before. It's not like this hasn't happened previously and it's not like we haven't had this discussion lots of times before. The current setup is not fancy, but maintaining it is integrated into our documentation maintenance and thus kept up as well as our general translation process (which has a few really well supported languages and several less well supported languages and further spreading out the required skill set is not likely to improve the likelihood of improvement for the worse supported languages). -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
