Yama:
    I believe Sayamindu is trying to extend
http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/localization/2008-March/000699.html
    so that people could easily contact each other and organize
themselves toward each language community.

Sayamindu:
    To me your anti-spam measure seems good enough, as many of
translators have already appeared in some of mailing list and
  their address with similar anti measure are available on archive.
    I myself am OK.  But some nervous folks might feel safer if full
contact information would be available only to users who get login on
Pootle.
    And it would be safe for admins :-)  if (any) policy is shown on
Pootle user registration screen and they need to agree to register.

Cheers,
