Hi,
I'm Pierre, one of the Ubuntu French translations coordinators.
As you may now, Ubuntu has long had a translatable copy of the DDTP on Launchpad Translations. Recently the Ubuntu French Translator team has adopted a process to translate the DDTP on a large scale (using Google machine suggestions that are then edited and validated manually by our reviewers).
We're looking for a DDTP point of contact to contribute those back and perhaps set up mechanisms to contribute them back on a regular basis (we're translating several hundreds each week in French).
sincerely,
Pierre
