I'm thinking about the translators who contribute a lot but don't go through NM because they don't want to deal with e.g. library packaging just to get the right of vote in a project that they extensively contribute to but just in a different way than most of the others. I'm asking because IIRC this is one of (or THE one) the special cases where a "membership without upload rights" (or whatever it's called) came up in the pre-lenny discussions. If they could get "hand waved" through NM we could abstain from a special group of "members w/o upload rights but w/ vote rights", couldn't we? Hauke
