    Hello!

    I wanted to share with you that DDTSS, the service allowing us to
    translate package descriptions, recently got two updates that made its
    main page load 2 to 3 seconds faster.

    Hi Thomas,

    thanks for putting some love into the DDTSS, it is appreciated.

    * the Italian team has fine scripts that could benefit everybody if they
      were directly provided by DDTSS

    Aside Daniele's wishlist items (that I agree with), two of the things I
    use most in our pages, thanks to Daniele's scripts are:
    - a link to the packages.debian.org page for the package under
    translation, which I use to move along to the package's upstream home
    page whenever I need to clarify something I have to translate;
    - a link to the source package in the ddtp (something like https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?source=slidge-matridge) which allows me
    to see what other packages come from the same source and might share
    some part of the description.

    I have another minor wishlist. Only the last 10 messages are shown, and
    it is not possible (or I am not able) to read the previous ones unless
    you delete some of newest ones. Would it be possible, without it being a
    big hassle, to have a link for a page with the older messages?


    * we should use Salsa as a way to authenticate users instead of DDTSS'
      legacy homemade solution

    yes, DDTSS authentication would benefit from some improvement, and maybe
    a password recovery function.

    Again, thanks a lot for your work.

    Ciao,

    beatrice

    Hi from a l10n-portuguese contributor.

    Actually, I don't contribute that much to DDTP/DDTSS but ocasionally I
    do so I can give a feedback.

    First of all, thanks for maintaining and developing DDTSS!

    I need to clarify that I'm software developer, so I'm a bit biased
    towards git things. I think ti would be really nice to have an option to display the original description and translation side-by-side instead of
    one below the other. Side-by-side is even more useful now that we have
    very wide displays.

    This one is not exactly related to the interface, but with the database
    of contributores that we have. Some very nice debianites started the contributors portal [1] where one can see the contributions a person has
    made to the project, but they need a data source from the services
    themselves. There is a wiki page teaching how to setup the data source
    [2] so they can show the info in the contributors website. It would be
    very nice to have DDTP/DDTSS infoshowing up there!

    Cheers,
    Charles

    This made me think of another wishlist. Any way to make the differences
    between the old description and the new one in the related text box
    easier to identify would be very welcome. A side by side diff might
    work, and/or maybe a word-diff instead of the line-diff we have now.

    Thanks again,

    beatrice.
