Until 27.09.2012 19:53 (last response from Churro) my user experience was an
almost immediate response: empty mail to pdesc@ddtp.debian.net, (no
subject),
translation attached (last message sent: 27.09.2012 19:51).
Now I've to wait about two days to be sure that something went wrong with
pdesc@ddtp.debian.net. No response within five minutes, with about two days
delay my mail provider sends a message that he gave up.

Once you notice common typos or other easy to correct errors such as
encoding problems, it is possible to bypass any review process and
to fix
this for all packages at once using a script. It is suggested that only
one trusted translation coordinator collects all these issues and
applies
the script.
As I understand things the script would have to populate the database
directly?
So I would have to become member in some group and to learn about
populating a
database. Am I right?
Cheers,
Martin
