Here's the list: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635357 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635360 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635361 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635363 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635365 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635366 And I may still have to fix a charset issue that popped up in the html documentation [1] while introducing the pdf generation code. I don't get this charset issue when I load the documenation from my local files, so it may be the way the server is configured is involved. I'll look into it one of the next days. Regarding translations: there aren't many coming in at the moment. I am tempted to issue a formal call for translations on the devel and user list. This may catch the attention of (potential) translators that haven't been following our progress lately. It would be nice if we could release with more and more complete translations.
