I believe it is reasonable to discuss other issues in parallel, but as
Gaudenz proposes, any formal decisions about changes should come after
the translation is formally accepted.

Exactly what I had in mind - except for one thing. I do not believe it
needs to be the AGM - I believe any GM called with 21 days notice could
vote to accept the translation. We should aim to have as many members
as possible in attendance.
Given the higher than usual level of debian.ch activity (due to
DebConf13), maybe a suitable meeting can be called in September or October?
That means everyone would be able to read the English articles before
the 2013 AGM, and anyone wanting to propose changes could do so for the
2013 AGM.
