Thanks for the update! I have some questions through: I see a discussion of the update last month here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-l10n-portuguese/2024/12/msg00000.html which is good! (Even if am I am as usual not understanding a single word) I do note through that this is your first contribution to the apt translation which non the less states: | # Rafael Fontenelle <rafae...@gnome.org>, 2022-2025. It seems like the thread mentions why, but auto-translation only goes so far, so I wonder a bit what happened in those years and if there is anything we could have done better? As last translator "Felipe Augusto van de Wiel (faw)" is recorded … from 2008. That is an awful lot of time, but did you (or the team that is CC'ed) were in contact about an update at any point? CC'ed him, too, just in case he wants to comment (and I don't want to talk about others behind their back). For better or worse, we have a sort-of strong ownership of translations similar to packages, so ideally I would like to hear some (n)ack OR on the other extreme some proof of MIA from the last translator. [0] (Having it discussed on the l10n team mailing list gives me some peace of mind, so if nobody screams "NO" for a few days I am going to import the update given the age and all, but I wanted to ask for 'paper trail' and more general MIA concerns anyhow) Best regards David Kalnischkies [0] https://contributors.debian.org/contributor/faw@debian/ tells me he voted recently, but otherwise not much was recently recorded, but that might also be due to work in the blind spots of that service. Unrelated to translation work, but he is recorded as owner of get.debian.net, which seems severely outdated for a prominently named website. So depending on the reaction, I might involve the MIA team.
