Thanks for the pointer. Regarding the hosting site I'm neutral, as
long as I can git push/pull from/to it.

If there is any indicator I should not push, please let me know. I
hope I did not cause any of those disturbances in the past. I stuck to
to the rules as best of my abilities.

I'm reading the mailing list, but I'm not on IRC, so if most important
infos go via the list, then I'm covered.[1]

I would like to stick as closely to the current workflow, as it
provides the lowest barrier. I can use git, vim, diff and friends to
easily work on the translation. Also I have the original files there
as necessary, I'm able to immediatly build everything (to view the
output) and, last but not least, fix obvious errors without disturbing
you (I did so a few times in the past, sometimes even for other
translations).
I'm not intending to switch to a mouse based / graphical / web based
work flow, at least for projects I'm havily working on.
Thanks for taking care.
Greetings
Helge

happen on IRC, I'm perfectly fine.
