Some of the translators are now talking about this, and so far all think similarly.

To be fair, one doesn't.

This is basically an exact anology of what’s happened for the translators working as volunteers on translation openSUSE. Now, are you surprised that we get messages like this from the translators:

What does this mean for us? FMPOV, for us that means that nobody is actually interested in our opinion, nobody cares for our established workflow and nobody has a clue about best practices in decision making by discussing the issue with those who are interested. This exact move of files clearly wasn't decided here on translators mailing list. No recent discussion was held, no simple warning was posted (sic!). I find this move really demotivating.

(and that was not me) I will add something else. The KDE folks have an splendid setup for translations. Everybody seems happy, and the translations seems to be big quality and very complete (at least in Spanish, the one I can understand). They even have tools to check grammar or expressions (at least for Spanish). If somebody wants to imitate a working setup, use them. No need to reinvent the wheel. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
