Re: French translations of util-linux-man
Hi Mario,
Thanks to Jean-Philippe Mengual, I understand now there is a good and
dedicated team working on the translation of those manpages at debian-l10n-
french.
The TP is not designed to let several people work on one package.
Translating util-linux-man on the TP will place all the burden on one
translator.
It looks much more efficient to keep using the existing translation process
applied by debian-l10n-french.
Can you explain your motivation to move all the manpage translations as one
package to the TP?
Thanks,
Frederic
