=== Preview Version of Release Notes Available ===
=== Software Translation deadline ends ===


The .pot file of the F10 Release Notes was[1] finally made available. The preview version was delayed[2] due to a shortage of beat writers, rewriting and a bug in <code>xml2po</code> that prevented the creation of the <code>.pot</code> file for translators. The file is available from the Fedora git repository and translations can be submitted via https://translate.fedoraproject.org.
The software translation deadline for nearly all modules in Fedora ended on 21st October 2008. A few special modules like Anaconda would still be updated until prior to release time. Currently, the Fedora Translation Project members are concentrating their efforts on the documents, especially the Fedora Release Notes. The deadline for translations of the GA version of the F10 Release Notes is 13th November 2008[1]

=== Virt-* package submissions to be done via bugs ===


=== String Freeze Breaks ===
[[NorikoMizumoto]][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] and [[AnkitPatel]][9] announced the bug numbers on Red Hat bugzilla, which would be used to submit the various virt-* modules. These modules are not available for submission via translate.fedoraproject.org interface at the moment. Bugs for submitting translations for System-config-display[11] and desktop-effects[10] modules were also filed.


<code>Anaconda</code> and <code>firstboot</code> modules broke[3] in the String Freeze. The new strings in the <code>naconda</code> module were[4] a result of the earlier non-creation of the <code>.pot</code> file. A request for a string freeze break for the comps module was rejected[5] by FTP. [[DimitrisGlezos]] suggested[6] that a separate string freeze policy/schedule for comps can be discussed upon for the future releases.

Fedora packages are[7] currently string frozen for Fedora 10: no new translated messages can be added without the prior permission of the Fedora Localization Team as per the String Freeze Policy[8].
