I choose Fetch using milestones from http://ddtp.kleptog.org/ddtss/da
I end up on this pages, which says milestones for da, but it shows milestones for all languages, and no translation is fetched.

Emne: The new DDTP/DDTSS

The current DDTP/DDTSS in churro has been offline for a while now
which is annoying. This has prompted me to look at seeing if we can
get some kind of replacement running, since there doesn't appear to be
any ETA when churro will come back.

People may remember that there was discussion about moving it all the
ddtp.d.o a few months ago. There are, as far as I know, no technical
reasons why this can't happen. The software for the website is I think
ready, but there appear to be some policy issues which I can't
resolve. The mail service is completely untested though. So I know if
this can be a solution for the current situation.

Then there is the new DDTP/DDTSS which has been under development for
some time. It can't run on ddtp.d.o because that's not for
experimental software. But it does need to be tested, so I have setup
a test instance that people can play with.

The most important thing here is that it is *not* HTTPS (I don't have
the IPs for that) so while you can login with your normal username and
password be aware it'll be in the clear. As an alternative the new
system allows you to use any valid OpenID to login, then you don't
need to send the password to the server at all. So it's probably best
to just create a new account and play around.

The second most important thing is that it feels really slow because
it's on a server with 300m ping time from Europe (Australia). Sorry.
If it turns out to be workable I can see about renting a server in
Europe.

The system works largely like the old one, though the DDTP and DDTSS
are more tightly entwined to work as a single system. They now link to
each other where appropriate. It has some more stats, milestones, all
sorts of features. See http://wiki.debian.org/I18n/DDTP2 for a summary
and details.

What I'm mostly interested in is if people can find bugs in the
system. It's not coupled in any way to the current translation system,
so you can go wild and try to break it. Just as long as any bugs are
reported.

Hopefully we can get some kind of translation server running again
soon. Getting the translations back into Debian itself is another
phase, but that hasn't stopped us in the past.

Have a nice day,
