Yes. That's why I was mentioning it.

No problem with this. I just wanted to say that while documentation in
/usr/share/doc/<pkgname> is a very important thing to have but from a
general point of view if the documentation is not in English I would
reduce the effort I'm investing into it (like patches etc.) Keeping
things simple is in this case quite reasonable and once there might be a
translation we might consider rethinking what should be done to serve
our users best.
Kind regards
