<li>Languages with a lot of contributing translators can have a high "translated" and low "reviewed" percentage.This means it could be of poor quality or very inconsistent. I think it's better to force users to use the product in a secondary language that is consistent than their primary language which is inconsistent. An inconsistent Horizon interface can have substantial negative effects on user satisfaction and you only get one chance for a first impression. Again, the coordinator is best suited to judge quality.<br>

<p><font face="sans-serif">Hi, team</font><br>
<br>
<font face="sans-serif">We are just before the translation importing, and we haven't gotten a consensus to the importing policy.</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">Let's do a vote then.</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">The vote will be opened for 24 hours.</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">I only open this vote to i18n mail list yet.</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">But I will publish the vote results to public mail list and ask for comments.</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">The result of this vote will be used for Havanna RC1.</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">If we got strong opposition from the public mail list, </font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">we still have chance to change it in Havanna RC2 and Havanna offical release.</font><br>
<br>
<font face="sans-serif">Please let us know your opinion.</font><br>
<br>
<font face="sans-serif">-------------------------------------------------</font><br>

<font face="sans-serif">d> All languages in Transifex</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">e> others ____________</font><br>
<br>
<br>
<font face="sans-serif">2. Whether to keep the old translations in Horizon? </font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">(There are some old translation po/mo files in Horizon. </font><br>
<font face="sans-serif">They are old version. Most of them are not completed. )</font><br>
<br>
<font face="sans-serif">a> Yes</font><br>
