** Also affects: ubuntu-translations
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

+ There are a lot of untranslated software descriptions in WebCatalog, Software 
Center and Synaptic (60000+ strings in most languages, 
https://translations.launchpad.net/ddtp-ubuntu/ ).
+ Relying solely on translators doesn't scale. Would it be possible to add a 
mechanism to enable translation suggestion crowdsourcing ?
+ 
+ The basic idea would be a button to "Translate this software
+ description" below each untranslated description that would enable users
+ to easily provide a translation suggestion to the DDTP using Launchpad.
+ 
  We could point the user to the DDTP translations in each individual
  software summary shown in Ubuntu App Center or Synaptic. There would be
  a button called "Translate those descriptions"
