Thanks Jordi. Yes, that might work. We're still getting advice on what
will be good enough. That is whether we do need to get everyone to sign
the full contributors agreement for translation contributions. So I'd
prefer to leave the Rosetta project disabled for now until we find out
exactly where we stand. I'll let you know if/when we'd like you to setup
the access control group for us.

Thanks
