Translations of derived works are owned by the original copyright holders and we assert no copyright over them. Hence, the conventions we follow in regards to "rights" over translations are political rather than legal ones. Nevertheless, we still wish to respect the wishes of translation authors, and will not reproduce or modify translations if we have reason to believe that this is their authors' intention. Our current practice is to attach a notice if our "rights" in this regard are limited, and to attach no notice if they are unlimited.
