SV: Package descriptions, short description, begin with uppercase or lowercase?
Hi Laura
package descriptions in English is with lowercase (canonical), so a bug report is fine if it is with uppercase.
For Spanish you could decide not to follow this. It looks strange in Danish, so we are now translating with uppercase.

Dear l10n-english and i18n friends,
Two of us (Spanish translators) noticed that some packages
have their
short description beginning with uppercase
(https://packages.debian.org/jessie/magics++
) and others with
lowercase (e.g. https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libss2
).
1.- Is there a canonical form? Which one?
2.- How to proceed with the packages that don't follow the
rule? We
would translate it following the rule, but how to report to
the
maintainer? Just file a bug?
Thanks
