In bug#657789, l10n-drivers gave RelEng this list of locales which had
already stopped developing on mozilla-central, and were safe to migrate.
Because its been a while, I am posting here to remind everyone, and
avoid anyone being surprised when this happens in the coming days.

For each of these locales, we plan to stop generating nightlies on
mozilla-central, and will generate custom updates to migrate any users
on that mozilla-central locale to a mozilla-aurora build for that
locale. (By request, af and oc will migrate to en-US and remain on
mozilla-central, see bug#657789 for details).



If you are involved in any of these locales, you had previous signed off
on this, and you now have any questions/concerns, please ask in
bug#657789 or email me directly.

Thanks
John.
=====
Background: As part of Mozilla's conversion to rapid-release-model, most
localization work switched focus away from mozilla-central onto
mozilla-aurora and mozilla-beta. A handful of locales need to stay on
mozilla-central, to help engineering and localization-edge-cases, but
all other locales will be moving from mozilla-central to mozilla-aurora
as soon as they are ready.

Mozilla generates nightly builds, and updates, for each locale on
mozilla-central and mozilla-aurora as well as for the beta locales on
mozilla-beta. Trimming any unwanted localized nightlies from
mozilla-central is a great help to our nightly compute load.

Trimming unwanted localized nightlies also reduces confusion for
localizers, and reduces the number of string landings a localizer has to
do, because they will no longer need to cross-land onto mozilla-central
as well as mozilla-aurora.
