Makes sense. It doesn't cost much to try anyway, as you said. What is
ennoying to me is that their way to work is far from being collaborative
(nothing's worth a good CVS where several translators can work on the
same file translation, especially for huge pots like Waste's Edge), but,
hey, let's give them a chance. My mail sounded like I didn't like them
already! :) And anyway, we'll probably have issues finding other people
for such a non-well known version as Waste's Edge.

So if no one complains, let's do as you said!

Alex.
