Speaking as a translator I agree with Albert that it's probably not worth the 
effort creating another l10n branch. 

Translators will have 4-5 months to complete 5.8 translations before 5.9 
enters the stable branch. And after that point very few translators would pay 
attention to the 5.8 branch anyway, since it would require some additional 
workflow, new Lokalize profiles etc., for very few string changes, if any at 
all.

OK from DA 

But I suppose you accidentally sent this message to the release team list 
instead of kde-i18n-doc by mistake? ;-)

Does that imply virtuoso 6.1.5 + KDE SC 4.8.x is a safe combo?

Speaking from a user perspective. I use kfilereplace and klinkstatus, and they 
work fine. Don't see any reason to dump them unless there'd be security 
issues.

The openSUSE problem seems to be fixed by updating to strigi "0.7.3.99". Not 
sure if the problem with strigi 0.7.3 was an upstream bug or a packaging issue 
on the openSUSE side or something else.

Will the offsetting of kdepim by one month from the 4.5 schedule also include 
the message freezes? Or is kdepim now in soft message freeze like the rest of 
kde sc 4.5?

I am planning for 4.5 translation just now, and would like to know the 
implication of the kdepim plans for message freeze.

The point of the page is to have a somewhat centralised place where 
translators and others interested can keep track of upcoming releases without 
too much horsing around. 

Potentially it would also save release coordinators a little work regarding 
notifying kde-i18n-doc about releases and such I'd think.

While KDevelop is not developed in extragear - it is in some sense "extra 
gear" for KDE. But if you think it's better to have 
techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDevelop, or to not be listed under t.k.o/Schedules 
at all, that's of course up to you and your team.

I would be happy if you would add keeping this page reasonably up to date, to 
your list of duties:

I know technically kdevelop isn't extragear, but..
