Sean and I had some long discussions with Carlos (from Rosetta) this
evening about the process, and have agreed to _attempt_ to get a process
going whereby translations in Rosetta will get uploaded as language
updates into Hoary. We are fairly positive it is possible.

The Quickguide has now been added to Rosetta, and when it is translated,
we hope to be able to get it into hoary as an update. Even if not, as
you mention yourself, it will be merged into Rosetta for the next
release (Breezy Badger), so that will reduce the workloads on the parts
that do not change between releases.

Thanks very much for sparking this initiative :)

regards, Matt

for docteam members: a longer explanatory email will hopefully follow
about this process tomorrow when I get time to summarise our meeting
with Carlos. Obviously a number of difficulties will have to be overcome
if this dream is to work :)
