Hi all,

i've spoken with the pt list admin today and we've decided to keep doing 
our editorial translations through the pt list rather then using the TT. 
i believe there already is a script which sends any articles that are in 
[pt: to do] to our list. but i haven't figured out where to we should 
reply those articles. should we send'em to this list?

about the TT redesign, here are my opinions:

- a source button allong with the other ones would be good;
- that little pencil link on the upper right of every article could 
disappear, 'cause it is not be used by most people and ends up confusing 
them;
- a simplified search tool would be nice;
- most of the links on the upper middle could be transfered to the left 
column;
- the internal and organisational texts should either have a more 
visible link or not be distinguished at all, appearing among the normal 
translation requests;
- i dont know what that RSS syndication works for, but if its not so 
important i think it could be removed or put in the left column, leaving 
the right column for ongoing translations on top, and Publication of 
infos on translation work below;
- i think proposal 2 of the new page is already much better then the one 
being used now, and in my opinion could already be put online, needing 
only some minor changes (i.e. pencil removal).

i think thats it, ill be posting these comments at twiki soon.
