Re: Online translation platform adoption?

["mousavi arash gmail com" <mousavi arash gmail com>]

Hey,

This has been discussed and resurfaced every once in a while. I think
the main issue is that the GNOME's L10N decision makers have no
interest in going this path and regular members also have no power or
knowledge to do it or don't know where to start. As a contributor for
many years, I sometimes feel L10N in GNOME is not getting much love
from GNOME and is left in oblivion.
