there is a solution: Martijn give andreas a url, that: - get the description and translation from the ddtp-db - don't store it in the ddtss db - show it on the web page, like the review process - only if the user make changes, store it in the ddtss db and set the user as translator/reviewer After this other user can review the new translation and the ddtss can import the new stuff in the ddtp > BTW, are there any experiences how long it might take until a fixed > description is available.
