The queue hasn't decreased at all since my last post, it's now at 1174
following a few manual uploads.

What concerns me the most is that a large number of pot templates have
not been imported, so even translators working through the interface
and not relying on imports cannot work with the latest English
documents. What that means I think is that translation of ubuntu-docs
is pretty much a write off for this release.

We'll do some post-release updates to try and mitigate this damage,
but it's a real shame.

I would have thought that pot templates should be given priority over
po templates in the queue.
