Perhaps this could even be automated: When a new (english) DSA gets released, a script automatically sends a short announcement to the translated lists just containing the message 'there is a new DSA regarding the package XXX, the english version is available from YYY. A translated DSA should follow soon, but if it gets delayed, please try to read the english one'. Of course, this message should be translated as well, but as it is a constant text with some fields filled in, this doesn't need human interaction. That way, people reading the translated lists do not miss DSAs when a translator is unavailable. They have to decide themselves if they wait for the translated version or try to understand the english one. Jan
