LibO 3.3.x is not dead, there will be at least one release from that
branch and translations can be updated/completed.

Extensions are special. Only NLPSolver is bundled to LibreOffice. It
does not matter if it is labeled as 3.3 or 3.4 because the version of
NLPSolver is the same in both branches. The other extensions are not
bundled. In fact, I think we should create an independent module for
each extension, providing that someone volunteers to manage them (i.e.
take the translations and push them upstream).

That's a good point. Statistics are important. I wonder what others
think. Should we always translate the current version under
development? It would be still possible to send patches and/or updated
po files for stable versions, because translations are stored in git,
too.
