Frank,
We're getting a 404 when looking for the pot file on the Zanata API:
https://translate.openstack.org/rest/file/translation/papers/papers/de/po?docId=edge-computing
As a result, we can't pull the po files. Any idea what might be happening?
Seeing the same thing with both papers...
Thank you,
Jimmy
