Robert,

unfortunatelly there is no offial statement from RedHat/IBM so far. But 
in November last year the Zanata Core team starts to leave the company. 
Carlos confirmed that today on the Zanata mailing list. For this reason 
I started last year this Blueprint to evaluate new translation platform: 
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-i18n/+spec/renew-translation-platform
It seems Weblate fits most of our requirements, but there is no 
decission yet to change the platform. Maybe during PTG we make some 
progress.

kind regards

Frank
