Hello,

I'm interested in receiving emails about changes in etc/news.scm.
This patch assumes other members of the translations team are as well.

Since changes to NEWS and po rarely go through the mailing lists, I
doubt this will have the intended effect.  (Of course we can still add
the scope, it most likely will do exactly nothing, i.e. neither good
nor harm.)  Is there anything else we can do to improve the translation
workflow?

This patch doesn't add scope entries for NEWS nor for po files though.
There's a scope entry for the latter but it was added by a previous
patch.

I thought that changes to etc/news.scm went through the mailing lists
but it looks like they don't so this patch is less useful than I
thought...

I still think it would be useful to apply it, as a kind of
documentation/statement that the translations team is interested in
changes to etc/news.scm.

Relatedly, it would be a good idea for people adding new entries to
etc/news.scm to notify members of the translations team.

I think Julien Lepiller's proposal to translate news on weblate would be
a nice improvement:

We could state that modifications to etc/news.scm should go to review
and with you change, the members of the translation team would be
notified.

Applied, thanks!
