I wrote much of that code so I'll take the bullets if there are
bugs.
We really need better Launchpad documentation so folks know how to
take advantage of this sort of feature!
An even better idea would be for it to be understandable just by
visiting the page. :-) Currently Launchpad has a page about
translation
groups <https://launchpad.net/rosetta/groups>, but the page doesn't
explain what they are, it doesn't say how to use them, and it isn't
linked to from any other page on Launchpad.
I don't want to moan, particularly at people who have already helped
our translation team plenty and all for free -- thanks for the
service, Rosetta and Launchpad people :o) -- but I sent a message to
rosetta@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, following the instructions at https://
wiki.ubuntu.com/RosettaFAQ, asking for a language team to be created.
As yet, I'm still waiting for a reply.
Could I have a heads-up from someone to let me know what's happening
with the creation of the Esperanto translation team, please? Thanks
in advance.
In the 12 days since sending the message (see below), our group have
translated something like 5000 strings of OpenOffice.org in Rosetta.
It'd be really nice to be able to have the proper framework in place
around this work, particularly so that we can restrict write access
to known-good translators and proof-readers.
Thanks again for the help so far, and thanks in advance for the next
bit. :o)
Cheers.

Hi there.
I'm writing to request that you create an Esperanto translation
team in Rosetta.
Language: Esperanto
ISO639 code: eo
[Three-letter code if required: epo]
My LaunchPad ID, I think, is just my email address:
t_morley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
For info, I am leading the translation of OpenOffice.org in
Esperanto (see http://eo.openoffice.org/dankojn.html), and a few
days ago I succeeded in uploading some of our work so far into the
ooo-writer template. We're beavering away at it now, but it'd be
good to be able to have some sort of permission structure in place,
hence the request for a language team.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Tim Morley
