[Freeipa-devel] FreeIPA string freeze

Hello, FreeIPA translators!

We wanted to give enough time for translations, so we made an upstream 
string freeze last week, giving about two weeks of translation time 
until the beta.
We didn't expect most of the translations to be done already -- 
Ukrainian at 100% and French with 40 strings missing. Thank you!!

Meanwhile we have some fixes upstream that add/change additional strings 
that would have to be postponed for the next release.
How much would it inconvenience you if instead of postponing the 
patches, we'd push each change to Transifex as it is pushed to master?

In the past Jèrôme said that updating continuously would be better than 
the string freezes and mass updates we do now. We don't have resources 
to automate that*, but for slipping a few strings past string freeze it 
could work.

* For the record, before automating it I'd like to first automate 
archiving the translations somewhere, so a bad Transifex update doesn't 
wipe out all the existing translations.
After that it should be fairly simple to set Transifex up to track our repo.
