To my knowledge, the release team has never request this. We have only requested that tarballs be released by Monday. I think that was the whole point of Danilo's request on the 2.14 schedule, though... > Translators know that if they > commit their translations on Monday, it might already be too late > for their translations to go in the release.

Is Monday enough time, though? I think some modules (like evo) may want a little more time to smoketest their own modules... _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
