That's the correct response. If you can't handle the responsibility you
shouldn't be touching other people's packages; you should be sending
the maintainer patches through the BTS. If someone who can handle the
responsibility of NMUing comes along and sees the patch before the
maintainer gets around to it, that's all to the good.

If you can't cope with -- ie, resolve -- the possible problems from NMUing,
you should not be NMUing.
And there are plenty of people who are interested in translations and
who are competent to NMU.
