OK, there is a major misunderstanding here and I think it's my fault since
I haven't choosen my words good enough. It's my intention to clear this
up now and hopefully end the thread here.

I meant to say that I was under the impression that every Gimp translator
should be subscribed to the gimp-developer mailing-list because it has
been the only list available for the purpose of discussing stuff related
to Gimp development including translations. We have never before refered 
any translators to the GTP and this list and the GTP has never asked us 
to do so. As this has changed now, it is probably OK to discuss our 
i18n-issues here, but I still believe that gimp-related i18n-problems 
should continue to be discussed on gimp-developer.


Salut, Sven
