Right now if a user has not agreed with Launchpad translations license , that user will not be able to add translations.

Some users might not know about this requirement or don't know where they should „sign” the licence.

Even if a user is member of a TRANSLATION TEAM, that user will still not be able to translate and there is no warning that he/she needs to sing the license.. otherwise their membership is of not much use.

Right now the text describing translation permission does not mention anything about licensing.

I have also added a screenshot.

---------

This translation is managed by TRANSLATION TEAM, assigned by TRANSLATION GROUP.

This template can be translated only by its managers.

I suggest to change it to something similar... and add a direct link to +licensing page.

If you want to help with translations, please sign the translations agreement first.
