I tried to join you on #debian-edu this afternoon, but it was somehow
in vain. I suppose you were available only passively. No problem with
me. I usually prefer anyway slower communication methods.

My involvement with Debian Edu is mainly limited to maintaining the
Dutch translation.
The reason why I voluntered to take over Weblate coordination was to
prevent that some Debian Edu translators would find themselves suddenly
deprived of their preferred translation tool.
I'm completely fine with you taking over Weblate coordination and I am
confident that you will do a better job than I ever would be able to
do.
Given my very limited skills, I'm not sure that I can be of much help
to you. But if you have a different opinion, I'm willing to try and
take some easy and non-urgent tasks, as long as you are willing to take
the lead.
Don't expect me to be highly responsive, but you may expect me to
always be loyal and cooperative.
Given such a context, perhaps you rather prefer to take care of Weblate
coordination alone. That would completely fine for me too.
It's up to you to freely decide on this.
