I have no comment on Liberty translation priority atm.
I think a couple of different topics are discussed at the same here.
* CLI translation priority * Server side project translation priority * (potential) usage of server side project translations in Horizon
We need to have more contact with project teams in the next cycle more deeply to decide translation priorties before starting translations. In the past releases, i18n team tended to start discussions after starting translations and it is too late for the game in most cases.
Regarding client projects, I know openstackclient is our future and the keystone team encourage to use openstackclient for Keystone v3 API. However, regarding other projects like nova or neutron, the progress of openstackclient integration is not well enojgh and a new feature is implemented in each client. Thus we need to consider the priority in the next cycle.
I agree with this. We are nowhere near, as far as I can tell anyway, of deprecating python-novaclient. The reason we pushed the changes to translate the project is because people are pushing changes into python-novaclient to mark strings for translation, but there was never any infrastructure in place to do those translations (the project wasn't even configured with babel until a couple of weeks ago).
So the feeling was, why not translate it? It's easy to setup. I agree that python-openstackclient is higher priority for the CLI, but python-novaclient is not going away anytime soon, especially now that we have microversion support in it for the compute API, which I don't think python-openstackclient has.
But just the setup will not give you translations for free. Even if we set it up, I fear no one will translate it. Therefore I wonder whether it makes sense at all to enable the infrastructure if no translator looks at it. Or in other words: Does the translation team want to have every possible project in Zanata? Or only those they want to translate? And then the question is which ones to translate?
