[Fedora-legal-list] Credit loss in Fedora translation files

Hello,

Translation files submitted via http://fedora.transifex.net removes all
information related to the copyright of the content as well as the names of the
previous translators. As far as I can understand, the translated content for the
Fedora packages and documentation are governed by the rights as indicated for
the main package and/or documentation. I'd like to know:

@ if there could be any implications of legal nature at this point due to the
loss of credits, and

@ if any statements or disclaimers need to be publicly made until the time this
issue is sorted

It is currently being discussed on the Transifex ticketing system at:
http://trac.transifex.org/ticket/675

Thanks
Runa
