The fact that the current solution is not yet integrated changes nothing
to the value of the translation itself. It's even Wichert who said that

They can proofread the translations when they know the languages. They can
refuse some translations (although the impact of this refusal is really
limited since not many people use the actual mechanism).

The mails are no more sent until a better subscription mechanism is
available. You could have read that several times elsewhere in this
