Hi all, I'm forwarding this message to the developers list, as not many developers are subscriber to the translators list.
Please remember that we are in User Interface Freeze, and if you need to upload a package with modifications to visible strings you should at least notify the translators and documentation lists: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#UserInterfaceFreeze%20Exceptions It is only a matter of sending an e-mail that should not take more than 10 minutes to compose. This way we can ensure that: a) They are aware of the change and it gets translated b) They have enough time to do the actual translations The same thing applies to user interface changes: the documentation team needs to be aware to be able to sync the documentation to the actual application behaviour. Thanks!

I have not seen any announcement regarding this in this mailing list (please correct me if I missed something), which is what should happen according this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserInterfaceFreeze. Could somebody please explain why is this happening and what can be done to avoid this in future? If current process is not suitable, then perhaps it should be changed. Translators should be aware of last minute changes, otherwise it can be quite frustrating for them. (I found strange and disappointing that this happens with canonical/ubuntu managed modules, as it was them who put this process in place).
