Yes, I've independently come to the conclusion you need a "pending
translation", mostly because it just falls out of the schema
naturally. What I do want to do is make it less rigid than before. So
packages that are pending a for while get removed. Perhaps even a
button to remove a pending. Similarly the fetch would go straight
through.

Now that's an interesting idea, I like it. It also appears Django has
builtin support for feeds, so that should be trivial.

Hmm, there is still some discussion about privileges. I was aiming for
"trusted users/coordinators", "logged in" and "anonymous". I'm not
sure we need to have more levels of permissions than that. In
principle I'm thinking trusted users can change anything for that
language, and logged-in users can do some things.

That's the DDTP backend and I don't have any visibility what happens
there. In principle everything should be updated daily, but I think
there's a mirror sync delay involved somewhere. If you have a specific
package you're wondering about I can have a look.
Have a nice day,
