Thanks for your answer. The italian repository found in the TEAMS files hasn't received an update for more than 5 years. I've opened a PR on the git-l10n repo, but it doesn't pass all the checks due to many obsolete entries.
Maybe Alessandro can shed some light on the current status of the italian translation.
Also, notice that when creating a PR the default PR message tells the user that the correct way to post a patch is via the mailing list: I assume this behaviour is inherited by the main git repo, but still can be a bit misleading.
Thanks again for your work.
