Ok. But what if these mails didn't help doing that? What if they
don't contain something like "Please add the following to your debian/control
file in order to get xyz language support for the package description"?
What if the mails didn't contain anything the maintainer could deal with
if the translation did accidently meet his native language? What if
there was no proper way developed how to deal with such translations?
What if those mails were used to confuse maintainers and raise the
grief-factor?
And what if this all would be true?
Oh well...

Joey
