[Debian-l10n-devel] Hard-coded Churro legacy

Dear Beatrice,

thank you very much for your valuable input!

I think it is a mix of hard-coding and security:

My browser for DDTSS-Work is Konqueror (I love the possibility to split 
the browser window vertically), the system is still Squeeze.

I tried HTTP (1) with Iceape and got


     Network Timeout

     The operation timed out when attempting to contact ddtp.debian.net.


in the "Information about previous translation" form. Konqueror did not 
display this message.


HTTPS (2) is not trustworthy for Iceape:

Technical Details
           ddtp.kleptog.org uses an invalid security certificate.

           The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed.
           The certificate is only valid for ddtp.debian.net

After adding a security exception I get the same network timeout as above.

I'm just the same as you and Joe - primarily a translator.


Cheers,
     Martin
