Thanks for CCing trans@ - I need to sort out my subscriptions.
I want to make sure I understand the structure, please correct if I'm wrong :
Resources are paired with a document's pot files, and are a subset of the Transifex project. Each project is a subset of the Transifex release. Updating a release requires a maintainer to manually add resources from each child project. There is no version-style iteration in the context I expected.
The manual adding of resources confuses me. I had some trouble getting tx set up for this document, and manually generated much of .tx/config. When I pushed to tx, there were messages about creating new resources. Are you saying that even though the resources appear in the project, they need to be added to the release by a more privileged maintainer?
I don't quite understand the part about cleaning the projects, but it will probably make more sense when I'm looking at Transifex - I'm on a mobile browser at the moment . Is it something I can/should do?
