So, since you already started that experiment, let's go and see where that leads us. First thing: The FAQ misses yet another question (or it's just me not asking _frequently_ asked questions): With transifex in place can you still edit po files by hand and commit them or are you forced to use whatever solution they decide is best for you (web-based? *shiver*)? Well, I registered there, guess the username :P

I would have never thought that it is even possible to fail at these things. ;_; >>> It should only ever touch files in po/.

I was glad to see that (at least) signing in is encrypted just to see that after the login things are unencrypted again, changing password, too. Seems their monetary interest in not being compromised isn't that strong... >> Interesting questions: What would be if transifex has been around for a year >> and >> people are more or less using it and then such an incident happens?

So, the answer is "No, I would not vote for a permanent ban per se.". Regards, - Kreuvf
