Hi Pablo,

In general, patches are very welcome. However, in the case of language
packs, there is usually no need to patch them, the reason being that if
translations are fixed in Launchpad, they will automatically make it to
the next language packs without the need to patch them.

In particular, in the development release, as language packs are being
generated twice a week (except for freeze periods), it's just a matter
of correcting the strings in Launchpad and then waiting a few days for
these corrections to be shipped in language packs.

So it's not using patches for language packs is not about being a
barrier, but rather to avoid generating unnecesary work.

Sure, feel free to ask if you've got any questions!

Excellent, thanks!

Cheers,
