What about batch *up*loading? If there's no way for that in Weblate, I see
two possibilities, neither of which is exactly good:
a) committing the files to GitHub directly - but won't they then get
overwritten again by whatever is on Weblate?
b) removing Estonian from Weblate and committing to GitHub directly - but
then there's no easily accessible public overview of the state of things.
How is this solved for the few other teams who translate offline?

There is literally no fluctuation in my team, only me :) / :(
The reason for asking is that in Pootle I have set that any (not
necessarily even logged in) users can make suggestions, in case someone
finds an error in translation or has an improvement idea. This possibility
has also been used a few times. If this can be set up like this also in
Weblate by Sophie or anyone else, then fine by me.
In addition, I presume that if someone requests to join my language team,
that request would then be passed to me for approval, so I can make sure
the applicant has needed level of language skills, agree on
style/terminology, etc.

Best regards,
Mihkel
