One more issue that I found... * LibreOffice inherited all localizations from OOo hg repository. However, not all locales are maintaned in OOo hg repository. I mentioned Gaelic (gd) that was completely missing. I learned about Slovak (sk) - now it is updated in LibreOffice git. But today I compared SDF files from LibreOffice repository and SDF files from Pavel Janik's OOo build source (ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/build/Files/OOO330/). Pavel Janik maintains 42 localizations. af be-BY bg bn cs cy da dz el en-ZA eo et fi ga gd gl id ka km ku lo lt lv mk nb ne nn nr ns ro sk sl ss st tg tn ts uz ve vi xh zu The problem is that we cannot say that he always have more up-to-date translations that OOo hg (or LibreOffice git). I did not check all files, but some seemed to be older then ours, other seemed to be more complete/more up-to-date. It would be the best, if locale owners told us what to use, but unfortunately not all of them showed up in l10n mailing list. So I'm afraid we cannot make sure about all of these locales before 3.3. I CC-ed l10n list, maybe some teams can reply and clarify the situation. For the next release (maybe even for 3.3.1) we need to find and ask all locale maintaners (and ask them to support LibreOffice, too, of course :)).
