While the exact dates are not important, the existence of a fixed schedule makes everything simple to figure out, and the quick update in the beginning is particularly welcome. Thank you for creating the wiki page and getting things going.

BTW. I should say, that in case we can come to an agreement on the schedule, I am volunteering to create the specific release schedules on the wiki along with google calendar links and ical files und alles ;) \Kenneth 2010/9/23 Kenneth Nielsen : > Hallo everyone > > I would also really like to have regular, fast and frequent language > pack releases, so I think we should try and get this thread going > again.

Re: Suggestion: Faster lanugage pack update after final release
Hallo everyone I would also really like to have regular, fast and frequent language pack releases, so I think we should try and get this thread going again. I have made a draft[1] for a template, from which we can create language pack release schedules for the individual releases. I have already discussed this with David to work in some of his ideas for the schedule and now I would very much like your feedback. The schedule is designed in such a way, that there will be 5 language pack updates for an ordinary release and 8 for a LTS. The first one will be made already after 2 weeks, to allow us to get rid of those very few but very ugly mistakes that sometimes pop up. The amount of releases may sound like a lot, but keep in mind that you are not _required_ to release a language pack on all these occasions. These will work merely as the times where you have the _opportunity_ to release one. The idea is that if you want to release a language pack, you should test it in the way described in the quality assurance page[2] and put your language name on the list (we will then reset the page after each language pack release), and if you don't want to release a language pack update you simply do nothing ;) Let me know what you think.
