Re: Fwd: Re: w3c-linkchecker 4.6-1: Please translate debconf PO for the package w3c-linkchecker
Oh, is w3c-linkchecker coming back from the dead? Good.

I'm jumping the gun a bit and just attaching a proposed patch rather
than starting up the full review process (which has a lot of mandatory
delays: "http://wiki.debian.org/I18n/SmithDebconfReviewProcess";).

w3c-linkchecker isn't a website, but everything runs on localhost!
This template and the one below both start by explaining the default
answer before they explain what the question is. It's more standard
to do things the other way round:
"Please specify the fully qualified domain name that the w3c-linkchecker "
"service should be remotely accessible on, if any. By default it will only be "
"available on localhost."
(That's what's in my patch, but if you don't like that "if any":)
"Please specify the host name that w3c-linkchecker should be available on. "
"The default is localhost; if the service should be remotely accessible,
"give the fully qualified domain name."

I'd prefer s/IPs/IP addresses/

"Please specify whether w3c-linkchecker should permit validation of websites "
