Julien, Florian: any thoughts on how we could organize to translate
these news entries?  (See <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/37413>.)

I=E2=80=99m thinking we could have an alias with volunteer translators who
would provide text fragments by email to the developer who wrote the
news?  Does that sound reasonable?

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
