The updated .po files are generally brought into Mercurial as the release process is conducted, so generally this will happen either the day before or the day of release. In the case of 3.0.0, however, it's likely we'll pull translations in when we announce a general string freeze, then again nearer to the actual release. For 3.0.0 I expect that we'll give a month-long string freeze to give all translators time to revisit their translations and ensure they're in great shape. We have a few translators that pride themselves on 100% completeness and the minimum practicable number of "fuzzy" translations. > (2) what is the time line for releasing 3.0.0?

We haven't sent many release notifications recently because very, very few of our recent releases have had string changes. > (3) is it worth backporting the work I've done from trunk to the > stable branch? Absolutely. I feel we'll still need a small number of 2.10.x releases before we're in a state to release even a beta for 3.0.0. In fact, you should find that majority of your work on 3.0.0 can be essentially copied wholesale for 2.10.x. John
