+i18n work sessions 4: DDTP
+--------------------------
 The DDTP/DDTSS infrastructure is now running solid on churro. Michael
 re-summarized the various possibilities that translators have to adjust
 their work process to the interface.
+
+The major improvement is that translated descriptions *now flow into
+the archive* since August 14th. Nicolas and Felipe worked hard on
+scripts for this, along with ftpmasters.
+
+So, from now, package management tools that support translated
+descriptions (apt, aptitude, etc.) will display up-to-date versions
+and not old stuff from 2006.
 
 The discussion about the "openess" of the system is still strong. In out
 i18n community, we clearly have two visions:

+The general agreement is that each team should be able to choose its
+own process in the DDTP: some might want to restrict users by using
+the built-in "authentication" system, while some other teams might
+want to leave things more opened.
+
+Another agreement is to converge towards the possible use of PO as a
+method to translate in the DDTP (whether or not this is hooked to
+Pootle is not necessarily relevant: we coould have a transient
+situation where DDTP translation with PO files could be possible
+without hooking Pootle to this). Michael will work on PO import (PO
+export is alredy implemented and just needs to be automated).

+i18n work sessions 4: Extremadura
+---------------------------------
+An Extremadura meeting will happen in November (post Debconf: that
+should be Nov 26th to Nov 30th).
+
+This meeting will focus on tdeb work as well as DDTP/infrastructure
+improvement. For that reason, attendees should be the "core i18n
+infrastructure team", namely Felipe Augusto van de Wiel, Nicolas
+François, Christian Perrier, Michael Bramer, Martijn van
+Oosterhout. FTPmasters will be there as well, which will allow
+polishing the import of packages description translations in the
+archive.
+
+The presence of Neil Williams and at least one dpkg developer (for
+tdeb work) is wished.
