Hey! I'm not sure how the previous branching worked. Since we do static 
site generation it would be the simplest thing to generate everything 
out of one branch.

Would it work if we create a symlink `po` -> `po-42` and add `po` to 
d-l? Before the next release we would change po -> po-43. Downside 
would be that the translations for previous releases get 'frozen' for 
changes via d-l.

I don't think this was intentional. To be honest, I'm always trying to 
advocate/integrate i18n (apps.gnome.org/GNOME Circle). But at the same 
time I personally felt like it's poorly documented how d-l works, how 
to get in touch with the i18n and you folks just don't seem as 
available in Matrix/IRC and GitLab to me as it is the case with Design, 
Infra, Lib maintainers etc. I would be very grateful if people that can 
help out with i18n details and questions would be more available to 
work out solutions for things like this.

Best,
Sophie
