Sorry about the late reply; I rarely have time to read the
development
list. It seems unlikely that many translators do - how are they
notified
about the need to update their translations? It is common to have
this as
an explicit step in the release process; perhaps I have missed the
broadcasts so far.
We don't have such a step. I don't know if such announcements have
been
sent, but .de translator Jens Seidel also expressed interest in having
such --- so perhaps we [c|sh]ould do that in the future.
Please consider that a strong suggestion then. After all, there can be
no surprise at the lack of translations if nobody thought of telling
the translators.
The usual way is to alert the translators when a release is about to
be made, but leaving them some time to actually do the work -- maybe a
week or two. It could be a good idea to notify them each time a new
release branch is forked off as well, since a lot of strings may have
changed from the previous release and that will give a little more
time for preparation.
