String freeze breakage alarms

NorikoMizumoto reported about suspected string freeze breakage for a few modules, during the week that modified the translation status figures[1][2]. These modifications (except for one: comps) turned out to be the result of delayed creation of new template files which caused confusion about the string freeze. The template files are generally scheduled for creation by the respective package maintainers before the start of the string freeze period.

Fedora packages are currently String Frozen for Fedora 10[3] i.e. no new translated messages can be added without the prior permission of the Fedora Localization Team as per the String Freeze Policy[4].

Fedora Docs moved to git repository

The Fedora documentation (including the Installation Guide, Release Notes etc.) were moved to the Fedora git repo[5]. Translation submissions can be continued via the Transifex interface[6]. However, PiotrDrąg writes in that the statistics page will not be able to present the status for these documentation modules, as documents compiled with publican are not supported by Damned Lies yet[7]. As per DimitrisGlezos, support for publican documents could be achieved if patches for this functionality can be developed by interested volunteers[6].
