David Planella (dpm) wrote : Make status, productseries and sourcepackage keys writeable in the translation_import_queue_entry API entry

The fix for bug 664327 means that the imports queue API can now be used to do a great part of the work in an automated way.

Now import queue maintainers can:

* Read all entries for a specific target (distribution, distro release series, project group, project, product release series, or person)
* Change the path's of entries

As a final request, and in order to fully automate the process and give maintainers full control upon entries without having to depend on the web UI or database surgery, it would be extremely useful to have at least the following keys writeable in translation_import_queue_entry [1]:

* status
* productseries
* sourcepackage

This would also mean less work for Launchpad Translations developers and LOSAs, as maintainers would no longer have to resort to them for import queue processing on a great number of entries. This could then be done through the API.

Thanks!
