[Qgis-community-team] documentation languages

[Otto Dassau]

Hi Werner,

another server sounds nice - thanks for the offer!

I guess we need to discuss, how we want to proceed and what OSGeo and QGIS
can provide before we start with a distributed infrastructure again. We had
this already on servers from Tim, Gary, OSGeo ... and I remember we wanted
to reduce maintenance as much as possible.

Regards
Otto
