In fact, many GTP translators also translate in the TP, and some teams
are completely or almost identical. So I don't think *that* will be a
problem. :)

There are valid issues regarding the different processes involved
though. The GTP uses cvs while the TP uses a mail robot that the
translations are sent to, and some translators prefer cvs while others
prefer mailing. Also, there's the question of how we should count the
stats from a GNOME point of view¹. But I strongly believe the right
thing to do(tm) is to decide to place the module in the proper place and
sort the other issues out seperately.
