Just before the release we need to freeze the website content, translate it, and have it ready for the announcement. </pre> </blockquote> Oh I see...

In general, releng asks *us* to let them know of which dates we want to have, so next release, let's make sure we let them know in advance of what we suggest. </pre> </blockquote> Yeah, that's right! <blockquote cite="mid:6d4237680809040853m49f81391n44b00601da20129b@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap=""></pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Our need is to know the due date to submit our translations. The reason, date looks important to me (and I think for all localizers) is because, strings keep on changing even if there is a "String Freeze" date given to the developers. Which basically increase our efforts most of the times to complete the translations. So, if we know the last date to submit the translations then we all can estimate our workload and schedule the translations accordingly. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> Right -- it'd be a good idea to communicate the above with releng and put them up somewhere for future reference, for example on the Freezes page [1] and on our FAQ.
