This is maybe my own technical limitation, though. On the other hand, I'm again not entirely enthousiast in keeping this "Debian Installer" project which is indeed a collection of various translation tasks for several packages and software. Of course, they are put together because they are in some way related to the installation of Debian but: - this is less and less true (for instance packages in level 5 and 4 have nearly nothing to do with the installation of Debian anymore) - this is confusing So, really, what I would like to end up is: - Debian Installer: the real "core" D-I - tasksel - iso-codes - dpkg etc. ...and dropping debconf-only translations (exim4, console-data, etc.) at least for the moment....until a more general solution is found/built to allow translators to work on them directly from Pootle and have the result committed somewhere for maintainers to use it.
