Would it be possible to add a comment field per package
translation in DDTSS?
Sounds like a good idea, what were you thinking? A
free-form field after the translation where anything could
be typed.
Yes.
Whatever was there would be added to a running log so you
could have a sort of discussion and see what people said
before?
I would do it simpler. Just a single field, where
subsequent reviewers replace or append to the existing text.
Two things:
1. How big a field? Would a single line be enough or were
you thinking multiline?
I single line might not be enough. I was imagining
something like the field for the long package description.
2. Do you want it to be kept after the translation has
been sent?
I didn't consider that. But no. There's not much point in
that. My idea with the field is simply to ease the
discussion about specific translations, so the translation
can converge faster.
