LanguagePacks for Testing

[Hannie Dumoleyn]

About testing before release to the general public. If the testing means 
delay of releasing updates, I would be in favour of release straight away.
And if updates are not released on a regular basis due to the amount of 
work it requires, perhaps those who are doing it now could publish  
step-by-step instructions so that others can help.
