[Scilab-loc] Re: Settings for the scilab localization in LaunchPad Translations

[Ihor Rokach]

Yuri,

I agree with you totally. Most of the Open Source translation projects
were, are and will be the one-man ones. Idea of creation of so called
'translation groups'  maybe could be useful for some projects,
however, is totally senseless in the Scilab case. Actually it adds
nothing to the quality of translation of Scilab or even decrease it
because it kills effort of causal translators which help us by
correction of one or two strings only. These people need to have easy
and simple access to the translation interface, otherwise they simply
will not participate in the translation process.

I know examples of the projects with completely restrict-less access
to the translation interface which are extremely successful. See for
example SMath Studio (freeware Mathcad clone) translation interface at

http://smath.info/translator/

If Launchpad team do not understand this it would be better for
Sylvestre to move Scilab translation to the another place.
