Lack of human resources is one factor but not the main factor. But it is always an excuse for low quality. This is a FOSS problem not limited to Debian itself. > Removing the work from translators will likely not lead to > more motivation. But that is not the point. The motivation is not important when it comes to Debian as a project and how it is perceived in the public. As a maintainer I also do take responsibility for the well-being and motivation of my contributors. But there are other factors a maintainer need to take into account. And the big thing is, to bring this factors in kind of a balance. If a translation/language don't get enough love in my project I do delete it to protect the project and my users. I used this issue to bring the problem to attention. I am acting with Debian as a project in my mind. If you, as maintainer (?), feel different, that is up to you. Close it then. Regards, Christian
