Really, the only problem is for new contributors that are not familiar
with GPG. Our current setup is already asking a lot from potential
translators, I think. So... I'd like to do this progressively, first
doing it for french/german teams, and with other teams when it's
possible, but not as necessary to start translating. Does it sound possible?
