Hi all,

A snapshot of the translations was uploaded today for the GNOME
documents. Please test and file a bug on ubuntu-docs if there are any
problems.

The deadline for adding new translations is May 18th. That means I will
be uploading the final snapshot on May 17th, so please get everything
done by then. :) I will probably upload another set between now and
then.

While I was going through the translations, I had to fix quite a lot of
problems with them due to failure to follow this advice: please double
check that all translation teams are aware of and are following these
guidelines:

Failure to follow these results in errors in the xml, which I will have
to clean up before uploading, so please keep them in mind to save me
some time!!

Thanks a lot, and great job with all the translations.
