 I request you to consider providing templates for requesting updates and
 new translations of other po files also (maybe a command line option for
 non-debconf translations, different subject and mail body).


I've added new templates (call-po, submit-po, translators-po) and a new
option --notdebconf to use these templates by default.

I attach the new templates, and here is the description of the new option:

Usage:
  --notdebconf  this is not for debconf translation. Do not
mention debconf in the subject and message

Manpage:
=item B--notdebconf

Indicate that it is not a debconf translation.
Bpodebconf-report-po will use the Itranslator-po, Icall-po, or
Isubmit-po template (if no other templates are requested in the
configuration file or in the command line).
These templates do not mention debconf in the subject or mail body and are
more suitable for non-debconf translations.

Dear Debian I18N people,

I would like to know if some of you would be interested in translating
package.

package already includes filelist.
So do not translate it to these languages (the translators will be
contacted separately).

Hi,

You are noted as the last translator of the translation for
package. The English template has been changed, and now some messages
are marked \fuzzy\ in your translation or are missing.
I would be grateful if you could take the time and update it.

Hi, I've often used podebconf-report-po for requesting translation
updates and new translations on po files that aren't debconf template
strings (using the --podir option).

However, the subject of the email and the text (essentially the
templates) are tuned for use in debconf.  But podebconf-report-po is
very useful even otherwise.

I request you to consider providing templates for requesting updates and
new translations of other po files also (maybe a command line option for
non-debconf translations, different subject and mail body).

Thanks a lot for po-debconf.

Giridhar
