So it looks like every language team has to choose between:

  A. Using Git exclusively (and find a way to express to the Transifex
     users we can't directly talk to that they should not work on this
     language in Transifex -- or not care, and see them continuously
     do work we won't use ever)
  B. Using Transifex exclusively
  C. Using Git, merging to/from Transifex on a regular basis


What do the existing language teams think?

Cheers,
