Hello Matthew :)

I came up with a few complaints about rosetta that I've heard around,
although I haven't used it myself for a long time.

One thing is that there is no search function, or a find&replace
function. This would be especially helpful if a decision is made
retroactively on a unified translation of an otherwise ambiguous word.

Another might be that you have to click through pages and pages of
things to _manually_ find what you're looking for. If there was a
setting that would allow you to adjust the number of strings per page, I
think it would be appreciated.

I'm sorry if these issues have been handled since I last checked.

I'd also like to see an online interface that would display the contents
of a bzr branch, so that I wouldn't have to use a daily-synced dir (
doc.ubuntu.com/~marketing )

What I like, however, is the incredible helpfulness of the team in
#launchpad and #bzr. They always helped me, even if they had to hold my
hand every little step :)

Good luck with tha new job!
