1.) notification mails
This is already fixed.
Verybody can stop the server to send this mails. And I send a
command to the server and it will not send notifications on this
packages:
base-passwd, doc-central, dpkg, dpkg-dev, dpkg-doc,
exuberant-ctags, fdflush ipmi-control, kernel-patch-ipmi-kcs,
ksymoops, ldap-gateways ldap-utils, libldap2, libldap2-dev,
lsb-release, modutils slapd, strace, tftp-hpa, tftpd-hpa,
varmon, vim, vim-gtk vim-perl vim-python, vim-rt, vim-tcl,
vim-tiny
I hope I miss no of your package. If you have problemes, please
mail me. Thanks and sorry.
2.) Yes, we translator have a lot of work.
But this two or three translation systems, are not the real
problem. We have already a beta web interface but we need cgi's
and CVS on a debian machine. We now waiting for debian-admin.
Finally I will wait now for a real solution and maybe I make some
hacks to test and use this translations in the meantime.
But please do me a favour:
Before the dpkg people start with codeing, please make a proposal
and discuss this proposal in the mailings lists.
Thanks.
