exactly, we released the new languages (full install + language pack) and an updated source release including the sdf files for the new languages. We can of course do that as soon Pootle is talking to me again (INFRA-7160, potentially an upgrade problem). If we do a language only release we should include Hindi which is UI complete as well. Let's pick up this again when Pootle is working and I can synchronize the latest updates for this new languages.
