Comment 5 for bug 20

Because in practice, it's going to be Ubuntu guys updating the priority themselves (or at least they should be). What they are going to base the priority on (be it popcon, manual work, or whatever) is outside of the scope of Launchpad Translations (thus, it's not a bug in Launchpad itself, it's mostly a process change: we provide them with a relatively free form priority field they can use in whatever way they desire; or, if you prefer it, we can make it a 'won't fix' as well). Once we have APIs for this, they'd be able to write their tools to do it automatically for them as well (but you can see how this is a different problem even if one depends on the other).
