Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Deleting old projects in weblate

Hello Christian,

thank you for your explanations. This small changes are sometimes no
important for the translated text. For example "can not" changes to
"cannot" or something in the xml tags. If I know this, I can just copy
the German translation from the "old" branch because this changes
doesn't affect the German text. This saves time. If the 7.2 project will
now deleted I can't check the differences for the 7.3 project. For the
German language there are about 1000 untranslated strings. Therefore the
7.2 project should kept until the 7.3 project reaches EOL.
