is translate.a.o used?

[Greg Stein <gs...@gmail.com>]

Hi Andreas, et al,

I'm curious whether translate.apache.org is being used (for the de.po
file). The last activity on that site appears to be 2015 for the 1.9.0
release.

The file itself (po/de.po) has seen a couple commits in 2018.

If the Apache Infrastructure team were to turn off translate.a.o, would
that be Bad? We're currently debating its use and maintenance, and the
Subversion community's input is welcome.

Thanks,
Greg Stein
Infrastructure Administrator, ASF

I am not using this service actively at this time. I found it
potentially useful for some activities, but it brings no improvements in
translating the shell command help output (and it's changes) relative to
po file editors or direct editing.

So it would not have any effect if the service was discontinued.
