The terminology that is currently used in GNOME Shell is very confusing and is not consistent with what is used in GNOME Help.

Re: String freeze break request for gnome-initial-setup
Kalev Lember kalevlem...@gmail.com, Tue, 18 Mar 2014 23:07:34 +0100: Hi, I would like to land gnome-initial-setup's wip/timezone branch before the .92 release. This unfortunately adds a new translatable string: _(We think that your time zone is %s. Press Next to continue or search for a city to manually set the time zone.) I know it's coming late, but it would be great to have this in the final release. Hi Kalev, Is this a nice to have feature, or, rather, an important fix? This late in the cycle, translators tend to only approve fixes that are deemed critical or very important.

Piotr Drąg piotrd...@gmail.com, Thu, 10 Oct 2013 16:38:42 +0200: 2013/10/10 Florian Müllner fmuell...@gnome.org: Oh my, it's this time of the year again ... When the new status menu work landed, the Notification switch that used to be in the user menu was removed, although according to the mockups[0] it should be included in the message tray menu - I'd like to land this[1] now for 3.10.1. At this point in time, this constitutes both a UI and string freeze break, though it restores functionality that has been around for quite some time (3.4?) and was only removed late this cycle, so I suspect that there are translations/documentation that can be resurrected. It's a bit too late, but since we already accepted bigger changes, I give 1/2 from i18n. Please note that this the last time I'm going to approve a break in this cycle. 2/2 for i18n. Florian, please try to push the change ASAP so that translators have enough time to get their translations updated for the point release.

Re: Request string freeze break in Anjuta
Piotr Drąg piotrd...@gmail.com, Sat, 7 Sep 2013 15:45:57 +0200: 2013/9/7 Sébastien Granjoux seb@free.fr: In order to adapt to languages having difference plural forms, we have to use ngettext instead of gettext to fix a message as described in this bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707562 I think this change is a string freeze break. This message is in a removal confirmation dialog which is not used very often. Moreover it is used only when 2 or more elements are removed so I think it's not an issue for most common languages. I will add a comment for translator for this. Then could I push the complete patch using ngettext instead of gettext or should I wait the next cycle? As a maintainer of one of the supposedly not common languages, I wholeheartedly give you my +1. So you have 1/2 from i18n. 2/2 from i18n.

You can ask for an exception if you think it's important enough, but it probably should get reverted on the gnome-3-8 branch. Ah that's true, apologies for that and thanks for the heads-up. I've reverted the change on gnome-3-8. I would like to request a freeze break so we can keep the fix for 3.10. The issue is that the scores dialog in Mahjongg displays separate scores for different map layouts with a combo box to select the layout, but the label for the combo box is Size. It should be Layout. Does not affect documentation. I already erroneously committed this change. I've left it be for now since it's unfortunately already part of a larger Italian update. Since it is already committed, here is my 1/2 i18n approval. 2/2 for i18n. Cheers, Petr Kovar ___ release-team@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team Release-team lurker?

Re: UI and String Freeze Break Requests: GNOME Music AppData and Notifications
Piotr Drąg piotrd...@gmail.com, Tue, 3 Sep 2013 17:41:49 +0200: 2013/9/3 Arnel A. Borja kyous...@yahoo.com: We would like to request a UI and String Freeze Break for GNOME Music. The string freeze break is for the addition of translatable description using the new AppData specification, and translatable strings for notifications. The following are the strings to be added: Notifications: - by %s, from %s (by Artist, from Album) - Unknown Album - Not playing - Previous - Pause - Play - Next AppData: - Play and organize your music collection - Music is the new GNOME music playing application. Isn't this a bit too short? I remember Richard asking for a few paragraphs, but that's up to you. It's less work for me as it is, so I won't complain. :) Also, are you sure you want the appdata.xml file in git? Looks like a generated file to me. Anyway, notifications are an important feature and it's early in the freeze, so here is 1/2 approval from i18n. 2/2 for i18n.
