Preview version of Release Notes available
The .pot file of the F10 Release Notes have been finally made available[1]. The preview version was delayed[2] due to a shortage of beat writers, rewriting and a bug in xml2po that prevented the creation of the .pot file for translators. The file is available from the Fedora git repository and translations can be submitted via translate.fedoraproject.org.

String Freeze Breaks
Anaconda and Firstboot modules saw a breakage in the String Freeze[3]. The new strings in Anaconda module were a result of the non-creation of the .pot file earlier[4]. A request for a string freeze break for the comps module was rejected by FTP[5]. DimitrisGlezos suggested that a separate string freeze policy/schedule for comps can be discussed upon for the future releases[6].
Fedora packages are currently string frozen for Fedora 10[7] i.e. no new translated messages can be added without the prior permission of the Fedora Localization Team as per the String Freeze Policy[8].
