I agree with Danilo, in that we should not have the same requirement for the Spanish team and the newly Central Sama team. The coordinator(s) should join the ubuntu-translators mailinglist, but inside the team they can use IRC, forum, wiki as a communication channel. Internal mailinglist should not be a requirement. I think we should try to only have a few requirement, and just recommend everything else. I don't think team should blindly use the upstream guidelines. For ex, the Romanian KDE team is deliberating using an outdated orthography in their translations (as a protest). My vote for requirements is: * assure translation quality according to the current(legal) grammar/orthography by using a neutral(formal) language * coordinators be active in ubuntu-translators mailinglist * team membership should be moderated/reviewed All other things should be mentioned as recommendation, together with a short reasoning.
