Hi everyone,
this proposal is about officially supporting to backport translations only in our LTS branches (included the not -yet?- official mid year LTS aka recommended), and not anymore in the stable branches.
The main rationale behind that proposal is that since we moved to using branches in Weblate for manipulating translations, it would be annoying for some translators to have new components created each months for the stable branch: we indeed got feedback that the translators were receiving notifications about newly added components. And there’s no real solution to prevent that.
Also IMO there’s not a lot of value in ensuring each month we backport translations in the stable branch: we very rarely release a bug fix version of XWiki in a stable branch. The case should happen, we could decide to manually backport the translations before performing a release.
The proposal here is only to agree to not systematically create the components on Weblate and all the needed infra to have automatically those backports.
WDYT?
