Re: [libreoffice-l10n] L10n compatibility with Apache OO

If I'm not mistaken, you can alone relicence your work any way you want.
But you cannot relicence work from other people.

So, if you made all translations I don't see problem in giving them to 
AOO, but if you have more team members then you all have to agree.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Bigger problem here is, if AOO can use your .po filesin their sistem.
Ididn't follow technical stuff behind translations, but I think LO devs 
changed translation workflow after OO split.
If you add to that thousands of new strings in LO and probably hundreds 
of removed / changed strings, it's not an easy transfer.

Best regards,
Mihovil
