Because they have a better model in which they update templates every
couple of days or so [1], contrary to our six-month delay where many
source code changes have time to accumulate and then get presented in
bulk to translators. This changes the perception, IMO, because in my
experience, even when there’s more material to translate at Mozilla,
it’s always more manageable…

That is something we need over here.

It might be helpful to know that there are plans to build automated
Pootle pushes [2], which in turn should give us much more frequent
updates and less overhead to worry about (assuming that implementing
it would be a huge time saver for our one overstretched sysadmin… I
might be thinking wishfully of course…)
