You're both right.
We still need for Rui and Pierre to do the work they're doing (integrating
updates from individual translators into the tree). That's very valuable
work.
However, the goal here was to identify who to complain to when a translation
is wrong or out of date. For example, we want everyone to know that Tim
Allen's currently deciding what the id-ID translation for "template" should
be.
I'm not sure that the maintainer/checker distinction is quite as relevant
here, although we *could* use some checkers who'd be willing to tackle steps
2-4 of the following POW:
