I'm not sure this is correct. My understanding of the current String freeze policy is that: * marking a previously existing but not yet marked string for translation is ok and doesn't require permission (but announcing it on the i18n list is appreciated); * adding strings, such as the ones for AppData, however requires an exception and so you should get approval from the i18n team. See https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/HandlingStringFreezes It would be great if someone from i18n could clarify this. -- Alexandre Franke _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
