The goal is to build it in Sid in order to make it go to Squeeze, while
l10n upload are still accepted by the release team.

Thanks for the hints.

I may try to find some, any hints welcome (which languages, which
options, etc.).

Sounds great. Since you already fixed l10n issues since 1.7.28, like the
encoding problem in French manual pages (for which I already sent an
updated PO file), and that most of the l10n bugs are already tagged
pending, I'm pretty sure you have a far more advanced version in your
repository.
If that's OK, I'll go on with a ten days translation round in order to
update already existing translation and even get some new ones. I'll
welcome the up to date POT files in order to do so.

Sounds interesting too, since the l10n fix should be independent,
working in the same VCS might should make it easier to chery-pick the
translation update in your trunk anyway.
We may continue discussing the packaging stuff in a more accurate
mailing list, or even privately if that's OK with you.

David
