I’d like to translate the JetPack Contact Form to Danish. Can’t find it on translate.wordpress.org. I’ve seen that jetpack is on translate.wordpress.com/projects/jetpack but that seems like the wrong place to translate the .org plugin.. Should/could Jetpack be added to http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins ?
BTW: why is there two separately maintained translations tracks for .org/.com ?
The process on making the contact form optional on local sites are……?
+4 months and nothing yet :/ (http://wppolyglots.wordpress.com/2011/01/12/how-can-i-disable-the-contact-form-on-an/)
Since no one even seems to bother answering this, I simply removed the contact page. Really not a nice solution since the menu item is static and can’t be removed. A simple page without the actual form and plain text information on how to contact the language team would be the simple solution here.
How can I disable the contact form on an international WordPress.org site (he.wordpress.org)?
Why would you want that?
Cause it kills the forums and puts all the support load on me
I use Gmail+filters+labels+predefined reply. After a while the support requests slow down.
Can’t see any changes in the support request flow at sv_SE, even with very clear information above the form, auto reply and so on. Out of 100 maybe 1 mail is actually intended for the sv_SE team.
I think disabling the form makes more sense then an auto responder.
Do you mean “having the option of disabling the form”? I, for one, find it quite useful.
I would love to be able to disable the form 
Me too!! maybe there’s more sense to open a new forum in our locale.forums.wordpress.org for translations questions and remove the form, if that’s its purpose. I never got a message related to translations there, only support request and wordpress.com complaints.
Please, Zé, please!
I think for those cases, a mailto: link will do

Any updates on this? 
~4 months and counting…
I’m definitely all for having this option. 95 % of messages I get via the contact form are from people who think we’re the Finnish support for WordPress.com. This happens despite the fact that above the form it says “this is not the support for wordpress.com” with a link to the correct address.
How can I change contact e-mail address of contact form of our locale wordpress site? (tr.wordpress.org)
Sorry, this was my first post and I forgot “request” tag.
You are now administrator of the blog, so you can change the admin e-mail.
Thank you Nikolay.
Could you please let me do that too? Thanks.
Ask and ye shall receive. Done.
Thanks!
And me on the Danish locale, please.
Any chance I could convince you guys to a post-per-request philosophy, instead of turning this thread into a mile-long, unreadable stream? (and I need your .org username, as always)
Of course

It is the right place to translate it. I guess it’s because Jetpack is partly driven by the wordpress.org cloud.
There are two seperate translation tracks because they use the same core, but are still different in many ways. I talked to @joen about it at WordCamp.

OK, and what about capitalization in the danish translation.. if the original string says ‘Show Wall’ do I then translate it to ‘Vis Væg’ or ‘Vis væg’?

Almost every manual I know (and I know a few) would recommend, in your case, ‘Vis væg’. The fad of capitalizing every word in a sentence seems to stem from the Chicago Manual of Style’s rule for capitalizing titles. In WordPress it is now standard practice to capitalize almost everything, which is not only particularly annoying, but also very often confusing for determining context.
Most translators choose to ignore the capitalization and just build proper sentences.

I concur.
I’ve avoided capitalization unless it’s a name for something e.g. Dashboard.
