Hello all, We will soon be starting the preparations for the next Beta release of the installer for Etch. When exactly depends on the migration of the 2.6.16 kernel to testing.
As with past Beta releases, we will not have a formal string freeze and we do not guarantee that all translation updates will be uploaded. We will make an effort to have most translations as up-to-date as possible though. If you would like your translation to be as complete as possible in the next release, please start updating now! It is also very important that your translation does not contain any technical errors (like typo's in variables used in strings). So, please check if any errors are listed (columns "suspect variables" and "specific checks") for your translation on [1] and fix them. Feel free to ask for help if needed. With the release of Etch getting closer, it is also getting more important that _you, as translators_ *TEST* the installer too see if there aren't any weird display problems. You will also often be able to spot consistency problems easier when you actually run an installation. If you cannot test yourself, ask friends and maybe look over their shoulders. Asking others to try the installer and comment on your translation is a good idea anyway. This will be the last Beta release. The next release will be a release candidate (RC) for Etch. For RC releases we _will_ have formal string freeze periods for translation updates and it is also more important that you have your translations updated to 100% because otherwise you run the risk that the installer will be actually released with an incomplete translation! Anyway, we are not at that point yet. First the last Beta. Cheers, FJP [1] http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/spellcheck/level1/index.html
