Without knowing more, it's hard for me so say if that's "ok" or not.

The different translators teams form their own rules about how to 
cooperate about translations of respective language. It's important to 
keep in mind that the bulk work with translation of Ubuntu does not 
happen at Launchpad, but at various upstream places like GNOME, Debian, 
freedesktop.org, Transifex... It's mostly about translating FOSS to the 
benefit of all Linux distros.

So to be a member of an Ubuntu translators team, you should preferably 
be aware of what I just mentioned and about the workflow in place for 
the team.

I'm sending this reply also to Yaron, the owner of the Ubuntu Hebrew 
Translators team.

Which means that submitted suggestions are attended to, which is good.
