Quoting helix84 (helix84@centrum.sk): > Hi Christian, > I'm sorry, my bad. > I took the files from this page: > http://www.debian.org/intl/l10n/po-debconf/pot#prey > The reason was that I'm not subscribed to d-i18n, so I don't get the > .po files to my mailbox and I wanted to avoid mangling them by copying > them from the mailing list web archive. > > I think I made this mistake before.

However, in the case of packages where a full review of English is being conducted just as it happened for "prey", the process is slightly different: - announce of the review in -i18n, with a message saying something like "don't work on <foo> translations as of now: a review will happen" - review on debian-l10n-english - bug report with fixed templates sent to thepackage - translation update round lead by the review coordinator (often /me or Jonathan Wiltshire as ofnow). This is where an *unpubllished* POT file is used - after about 10 days, final summary sent to maintainer The maintainer is expected to upload the package quite soon, otherwise an outdated POT file remains published as material on web pages is taken from packages in the archive). In short, I think you should subscribed to -i18n, Ivan... Being the de-facto "coordinator" of Slovak translation work (being the most active translator gives you this title), this is kind of a duty..:-) The list is not very high traffic anyway. It is mostly made of annoucements where browsing Subject: line is often enough to get the needed information. About packages that "appear" on web pages, ie packages that suddenly happen to have debconf templates: you can expect an English review to happen quite soon after they appear. I monitor such packages and alway propose a review (exceptions being packages for which a review happened *before* the upload).
