Re: Sarge Release Notes - Status update



Well, yes, I agree, it is really a pain catching up the updates.

But, on the other side, everyone has difficulties. I suggest we understand each other.

It seems I should set up to work... Com'on!

Cheer up!

Dear translators,

The release has been postponed by one week and is now planned for the weekend of June 4/5.

The current revision (1.50) should be your next target for translation. Translations for earlier revisions will be removed from the website on Friday June 3!

Making constant changes to the Release Notes without advance notice is really a pain in the ass. You previously said that translators could work throughout the weekend to finish this up. If you changed plans you could have e-mailed all of them (it's not such a big list) to ask the to hold off until all the changes had been made.
I understand it was necessary, but communicating properly and giving larger
"string freezes" would help a lot. Unfortunately, you've moved to the target to a non-weekend which means that many translators (well, me at least) might not be able to fulfill the deadline in time even though we've been struggling to keep the translation in sync.

Oh well.... :-(
