I must laugh about this. (or miss I a smily?) IMHO you are the maintainer of freetds, right? Please go to http://ddtp.debian.org/cgi-bin/debconf.cgi?part=debconf&package=freetds and check the de, es, ru translations. Maybe you found some errors. I hope you can read, write and understand all 18 languages from the ddtp. If not, the only thing you can do two things: 1.) you can cut and past the translation in your package 2.) you can throw away the translation What will you make and who is responsible for the final text? only for the record: I know, that you have include some of the translation in your packages, I know that the ddtp is lie on this web page. The templates are now in the libct0 binary package and not in the freetds binary package... > The maintainer is no longer in control.

Some german translators make >1000 translations.
