Hi translators,

Just a heads up that after fixing some technical issues, the first
Maverick language packs are now available from the language packs PPA
[1].

What does this mean?

      * Maverick language packs will now be available on the PPA every
        week on Wednesday, as per the current schedule [2]. If you want
        to test fresh translation updates every week, you can go and add
        this PPA to your system following the instructions at [3].
      * These language packs will be available to testers subscribed to
        the PPA every week, and they will be released to the
        maverick-updates repository (after testing [4]) from time to
        time, to be delivered to all users.
      * We are still determining the schedule [5] for the releases to
        maverick updates, but it will be announced in due time on this
        list.

I'm thinking of proposing the next language pack on Wednesday next week
to be considered for maverick-updates. Unless there are any concerns,
this means:

      * You've got some time until Tuesday (the date of the export) to
        complete any remaining Maverick translation you'd like to see on
        this language pack.
      * Wednesday or Thursday (depending on how long it takes for the
        packages to build) the packages will be uploaded to
        maverick-proposed and I'll send a call for testing.
      * After that, we'll follow the procedure for testing them [4], and
        those teams which have acknowledged that they've successfully
        tested the packages will have their packages uploaded to
        maverick-updates.

Does that sound good? If you've got any questions or concerns, please
let me know.

Regards,
David.
