Reminder for *every* translation team: you should update strings from
glib/gdatetime.c in GLib to avoid a chance of English dates in the
next GNOME release. Languages which won’t get an update soon will get
a commit from 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/commits/wip/piotrdrag/missing-months
merged.

Thank you for your hard work,
