Announce of the upcoming NMU for the nethack package



Dear maintainer of nethack and Debian translators,

Some days ago, I sent a notice to the maintainer of the nethack Debian
package, mentioning the status of at least one old po-debconf translation update in the BTS.

I announced the intent to build and possibly upload a non-maintainer upload
for this package in order to fix this long-time pending localization
bug as well as all other pending translations.

The package maintainer agreed for the NMU or did not respond in four
days, so I will proceed with the NMU.

The full planned schedule is available at the end of this mail.

The package is currently translated to: 
ca cs da de es eu fi fr gl it ja nl pt pt_BR ru sv vi zh_TW

Among these, the following translations are incomplete: ca pt_BR

If you did any of the, currently incomplete, translations you will get
ANOTHER mail with the translation to update.

Other translators also have the opportunity to create new translations
for this package. Once completed, please send them as a bug report
against the nethack package so I can incorporate them in the build.

The deadline for receiving updates and new translations is Wednesday, February 01, 2012. If you
are not in time you can always send your translation to the BTS.

The POT file is attached to this mail.

If the maintainer objects to this process I will immediately abort my NMU
and send him/her all updates I receive.

Otherwise the following will happen (or already has):

 Thursday, January 19, 2012   : send the first intent to NMU notice to
                 the package maintainer.
 Tuesday, January 24, 2012       : send this notice
 Wednesday, February 01, 2012       : (midnight) deadline for receiving translation updates
 Thursday, February 02, 2012       : build the package and upload it to DELAYED/7-day
                 send the NMU patch to the BTS
 Thursday, February 09, 2012       : NMU uploaded to incoming

Thanks for your efforts and time.
