What is upstream?

More detailed info of the translations lifecycle at Translations/TranslationLifecycle

Why is it necessary to contribute back to upstream?

General contribution guidelines

• Downloading PO files from Launchpad
  • Partial translations
  • Complete language packs
• Finding out where upstream is
  • In some cases it is obvious (Mozilla, OO.o)
  • In other cases look at the template information
  • If the info cannot be found, ask on the ubuntu-translators mailing list
