Title:
  Notification for new translations by non-member

Status in Launchpad itself:
  Triaged
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  New

Bug description:
  Summary:

  It is impossible to know when someone who is not a member of the
  translation team makes a contribution by sending his suggestion for a
  translation.  It would be great to have a notification mechanism that
  would send a message to a list of emails or a maling list, containing
  links to the modified strings.

  Use Case:

  Imagine user A who is not part of the B team.  User A decides to help
  out with the translation for packages C,D, and E, but since he is not
  a member of B, his suggestions are marked as such (instead of final
  translation) and will stay that way until someone from B
  approves/rejects them.  User A vanishes from the face of the Earth.

  Issue:

  The problem is that we currently have no way of knowing about this ad-
  hoc contributions and a great number of contributions are forever lost
  in the system.

  Solution:

  A configurable property accessible by the administrator (only) of a
  translation team, where he/she would be able to enter a list of emails
  or mailing list where notifications would be send to.  If a mailing
  list is chosen, it is up to the admnistrator of that team to make sure
  notification emails coming from Rosetta are allowed to go through.
