The time between two RCs are too long so I think your proposal is not
good enough
for testing translation.

Most translators are not coders so it is not a good idea forcing them
compile and test
their translation after he did his work.

A nightly build for OOo is not practical because it is too big.
But a *weekly* build will be nice for both testers and translators.

A side effect of weekly build is: test often, release often.
