Announcing new Lucid language packs for the 10.04.2 release

Hi translators,

The Ubuntu 10.04.2 (Lucid) point release is coming up in a few days, on
the 17th of February [1].

We'd like to release new language packs for it, although we're getting a
bit too close to the deadline, and the Ubuntu Release Team will make the
ultimate decision whether we'll be releasing them or not.

Because of this, we'll try to strike a compromise.

So here's the plan:

     1. Lucid translations will be exported from Launchpad today, at
        22:00 UTC. Until that time, you'll have time to do translations
        that will be included in the next Lucid language pack.
     2. There is an Ubuntu Release Team meeting today at 16:00. There,
        it will be discussed whether we can release the language packs
        or not (i.e. if the schedule is too tight).
     3. I'll follow up with an e-mail after that meeting, letting you
        know about the outcome (i.e. if Lucid language packs will be
        released or not). That will give you confirmation whether you
        can continue doing the translations or not.

I just thought I'd give you a heads up early enough, so that if you've
got any critical Lucid translations you'd like to fix or complete you
have at least a few hours until 22:00 UTC. But remember that the
confirmation whether these translations will be part of the 10.04.2
release will not come until this afternoon after the Release Team
meeting.

I apologise for the short notice.

Regards,
David.
