There are some Japanese mailing lists and they are sometimes confusing. I'll explain, although it is not so important here: * debian-l10n-japanese at l.d.o: This address is sometimes wrongly documented in translations as a contact address. However, this does NOT exist (at least so far). * debian-japanese at l.d.o: This address is used as contact addresses for many translations such as debconf po. Language used on this list is English. * Debian JP's debian-doc at debian.or.jp: This address is used for requests for reviews and commits and for pointing out some issues concerning with translations of Debian-related documents and po files. Language used on this list is Japanese. * Debian JP's debian-www at debian.or.jp: This address is used for requests for reviews and commits and for pointing out some issues concerning with translations of Debian's web site (and Debian JP's web site). Information mail about Japanese translations of webwml is also sent to this list. Language used on this list is Japanese. (*) Debian JP is an organization, which provides mailing lists and web site in the Japanese language so that Japanese users can ask questions and can contribute in their own mother language. :-) > There are four translation coordinators listed on > http://www.debian.org/devel/website/translation_coordinators.

Unfortunately and actually no one is available... 'nov' translated many issues of DWN for years and contributed many commits, but he seems to have been busy recently. As a Japanese translation team member of DWN, I received the last contact from him on 2006-11-10, four months ago. 'tomos' is also a long-term contributor and translated many DSAs, but he also seems to have been busy recently. His last post to Debian JP's debian-www and debian-doc was 2007-01-21, two months ago. 'maehara' and 'kubota' maybe did many works, but it was before my starting contribution to Debian. The last time I saw 'kubota' was 2004-08-06, on debian-japanese. 'maehara' seems to be maintaining some packages now, but no one around me can contact him. Both maybe busy... Your suggestion to add a mailing list address to Japanese web coordinators seems to be great!! It may be good to add debian-www at debian.or.jp. > If you want to continue working on the website on a regular basis you > can also request commit access for yourself.

The last mail I received was a request to resend and to encript on 2007-01-09. I'm afraid my mails were treated as SPAMs and didn't reach him, since I sent some mails to dburrows in the past but they were rejected as SPAMs... :-( Kenshi Muto, who is an active Japanese DD, requested my commit access and his (backup) commit access 30 minutes ago. So I'll wait. :-) Many thanks, -nori
