Re: Translations and Transifex

Hi,

I would like to kindly ask you for one last time to please change the
tone of your communications, or find another venue for your inputs.

The message quoted below is unduly worded in an inflammatory way and
contains a number of personal attacks towards various posters. This kind
of discourse is unwelcome on this mailing list.

People tend to volunteer on open source projects, because they enjoy
positive emotions that contributing to the community brings to them;
negativity and pointless fighting spoils all the fun.

Thanks!
