Translation packagers: Rebuild before devel freeze

Dimitris Glezos wrote[2] to remind "maintainers of Fedora-translatable packages to issue a build before the Development Freeze of tomorrow, 28/10, in order to have all translations submitted until the translation deadline of 21/10 included in Fedora 10 (otherwise our translator's hard work will go to the gutter)."

Frozen for Fedora 10

Jesse Keating reminded[4] everyone that we are now frozen for Fedora 10. "At this point, builds for F10 are not automatically brought into Rawhide, and won't be in the Fedora 10 release. To request a freeze override, please use the Final Freeze Policy[5]."
