Apparently the Subversion^WGit repository maintainers use 1.5 years + no
reply as a criterion to archive the module. We could use that as a
threshold:

http://blogs.gnome.org/phomes/2007/12/04/moving-cruft-from-svngnomeorg-to-svn-archivegnomeorg/

Would it be feasible to send modules to the "obsolete" group
automatically after whatever time length we set?

I translate GNOME for a couple of years now and "GNOME Office" and
"Fifth Toe" are obscure names for me (yes, I remember the
l10n-stats.gnome.org we had before SVN). Since there are no more
releases, it shouldn't hurt to move all those modules to "Extras". Do we
need to talk to the Release Team before doing that?

Yes, that sound like en amazing idea. I have been thinking about
something similar. My idea was to simply have it posted on the damned

enough space.

About this Tracker release: there is now a "tracker-0.6" branch and in
master they merged some bleeding edge stuff (vstore). Do you have any
additional info? It will a 0.6.x or 0.7.x?

If the upcoming release will target the 0.6 branch, please note that
damned-lies is tracking only master branch.

I'm not thrilled at all by such an idea. Too hard to be objective.

Translation stats for GNOME modules will not be removed from
l10n.gnome.org as long as the module is in the main git repository. We
only delete them when the module is retired in the -archive repository.

However we can create an "obsolete" release set which lists these
non-actively maintained modules. I just created it and moved one module
in it.

Well, if you want to use this to signal your team which modules to
translate, you can create a short comment that will appear on the
statistics page of your language[1]. If you want to do this globally, so
that all teams would see the same - well, open a bug :).

Not really, but maybe a calendar view with the expected releases of
modules would be more useful (i.e. May 7th there will be a tracker
release). Of course every module should have a maintainer and he/she
would have an UI to set release dates (date and target branch to
translate).

Then an RSS and/or a mail sent to this list (or coordinator teams) would
be enough to have everyone up-to-date.

Sounds good?

How do we define "no longer maintained"? :)
There are already a lot of modules[2], that saw no non-translation
commits since years, where "years" can be 1-2-3... so, how long should
we keep modules listed as translatable?

I think we can consider a module too old to be worth translating if it
has not touched by a maintainer in the last two years - if a module
reaches this age, without even a tiny ".1 maintenance release" message
in configure.in, I'd say it's safe to assume that it is practically dead
and nobody would see our translations. If it gets a new maintainer, it
can be re-added of course.

If some of them are no longer maintained why we keep them to being
translated at all? I agree to remove the category if it isn't
meaningful, but keeping old programs is just counterproductive for
translators.
