We at ocProducts don't really want to be autocratic about this as really it's a decision for individual contributors. But at the same time, there is a consistency issue – translations should either be informal or formal. This topic contains a poll to vote on the issue. We suggest that we adopt a majority rule approach here – we think Launchpad translations should follow the tone and tense that the majority of people think is best. Many translations have been assigned leaders on Launchpad, so the leaders of the translation also have a voice. Translation permissions are set to open; as far as I am aware this means that people can go and change anything until it reaches a good consistent standard (wikipedia-style) – if that's not the case please let me know. Ultimately we would like it if Launchpad supported language-variants, so I would suggest people who want something that differs from consensus tries to build up support for this feature on Launchpad. If I answered something that you think should be in the documentation, please take the initiative and add it to the community documentation. We really need people to help out here and build a well-organised large support resource. |
