Re: Freeze break request: string change in gnome-control-center
Just to clear things: we're not string-frozen. We're in the string change announcement period. So no need to request a freeze break or to have the l10n team leaders approve one ;-) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

I've changed it to "Mirror Screens" as discussed, and added a clarification comment for translators as well.
