Creating a Translation Team

[Clytie Siddall]

Hello everybody :)

I was a member of this list some time back, but couldn't keep up. I  
probably can't keep up now, but need to ask some questions. ;)

I'm a member of the new Ubuntu-Women group (although I am not a  
Ubuntu-user ;) ), and have been asked to manage our translations. We  
have started translating our wiki presence, and plan to translate our  
website. Further translations will follow.

I would like to manage this via Rosetta, if possible. (I realize that  
html files aren't the norm, but we can mess around with filters if  
necessary. In any case, it's an opportunity to mentor some new women  
translators in OSS translation, which is something I really want to  
do, and which is needed.)

However, when I go to set up our translations, I am asked to choose  
between existing Translation Teams. I don't want to do that: this is  
a separate translation effort, which (sadly, but i say this from wide  
experience [1]) will meet with at least some hostility and deliberate  
interference, so we want to keep our translations closed.

How do I create a separate Translation Team: the Ubuntu-Women  
Translation Team?

Thankyou for any help you can offer with this. :)

Also, is it possible for more than one of us to manage our project on  
Launchpad? Because I'm managing the translations, I've had to be  
logged as project admin, but there are others who will do other admin  
tasks. I can't do it all, and I'm not the best choice for all admin  
tasks. Can we choose our own Project as a Team for admin?

Sorry to ask this here, but Launchpad and Rosetta user info is almost  
non-existent. :(
