Hi Tomas,

I'd like to make a point: GNOME Lithuanian coordiantor is *free* to use
your GPL translation in case he leaves your credit as a translator. If
you don't like it, don't post your translations to l10n.gnome.org.
Anyway, GPL is the only way to distribute translations (as derivative
work). So please don't accuse respected coordinator of steeling anything
from you.

Currently I see that *you* don't respect your language team traditions
and rules. Please stop abusing your collegues.

You're not in charge of forcing GNOME to remove your contributions from
repository. I even think that it will be anti-productive to do it. So I
hope current Lithuanian coordinator will leave your work adapted to team
requirements in tree so that GNOME users have one more application with
good Lithuanian translation.

Thanks,
Ihar.
