I want at least confirmation that this will actually be the way we're going to do Etch+1/2.

Not sure if I agree that prefmeta would be better than altmeta, but I have no strong feeling about it. I'll wait for other opinions. > I'd like to get a comment from > Christian since he always gives good suggestions on this cases :-) Does not really matter as this is a purely internal template, so an l10n review is not needed. More important is that these changes may very well impact your release planning, depending on how quickly we get the needed responses. Note that we could delay the patches for a next Beta (based on 2.6.24), but that would be a pity if they decide to go for 2.6.22 instead. In that case, if the patches go in before the first Beta, we would not need to do an extra release.
