Aquest post, de la llista launchpad-users, em sembla interessant i em fa ser
una mica optimista en les qüestions de localització d'Ubuntu...

Yesterday at Fosscamp I attended a discussion, led by Og Maciel, about
improving collaboration between Ubuntu translators and upstream
translation projects.

For those of you who haven't met him, Og Maciel is the leader of
Ubuntu's pt-BR translation team, and a developer for Foresight Linux.
Also present at the discussion were Troy Unrau of KDE, and Mark
Shuttleworth.

Four main points emerged about how Launchpad can help improve
collaboration on translations.

*   Sync more often from upstream translations into Ubuntu.

*   Make it harder to customize upstream translations in Ubuntu, and
     easier to revert from customized translations to the upstream ones.

*   Let Launchpad record contact details for each upstream's translation
     team, so that people can collaborate more easily.

*   Support any future API for submitting translations elsewhere, and
     accepting/rejecting suggestions from elsewhere.

Cheers
