Hi all, in our OSGeo-Live weekly meeting yesterday we decided not to set
up an OSGeo-Live translation list for now.
Reason being that we have a number of translators agree with Kari's
point that it can be managed by convention within the OSGeo-Live list.
We can reassess in a few months if people think that such a list is needed.
Cheers, Cameron

Hi, Messages to translators can be done using transifex, they just
need to be registered as translators.
That would generate less traffic to normal mail.

Hi Cameron, list,

I can't expect how much traffic will the new translation mailing
list have.
So, I think that starting from putting [TR] in the subject (as Richard
Wrote) is better
until the each translators get used to the new Transifex way.
I agree with creating the new translation mailing list
when its traffic becomes too much and the questions become varied in
each language.
