Hi everybody!
I just splitted the new 1.8 stable line off into its own branch (branches/1.8)
and updated gettext.wesnoth.org to automatically show the stats for 1.8. I don't
know exactly how the wescamp stuff will work out, we have to handle this 
separately.

The basic rules for 1.8.x will be rather identical with the stuff for 1.2,
1.4 and 1.6 when it comes to translations:
* At least one week between string changes and a new release. I will announce
the pot-update that introduces the changed strings on the wesnoth-i18n ml.
* All translations, no matter how incomplete, will be in. If a translation needs
an extra font that is not included, they should send a mail to the wesnoth-i18n
mailling list and say the font-name, a link to the homepage/license. We will
include that font if that translation does at least have these textdomains 
complete:
wesnoth, wesnoth-lib, wesnoth-tutorial, wesnoth-multiplayer, wesnoth-units, one
campaign.
This is *only* needed to have the font included if it is not already included.
All translations itself will be in anyway.

String changes and how it goes on:
Several strings were already updated in 1.8 (in trunk as well). This lead to
several textdomains being incomplete. These are the numbers of new/fuzzy strings
if your files were complete before:

wesnoth: 21 fuzzy, 34 untranslated (mainly the /help stuff in the mp lobby)
wesnoth-did: 1 fuzzy
wensoth-httt: 1 juzzy
wesnoth-lib: 2 untranslated
wesnoth-nr: 1 fuzzy
wesnoth-sotbe: 1 fuzzy
wesnoth-units: 2 fuzzy (whitespace(indention changes only!)
wesnoth-utbs: 1 fuzzy
wesnoth-manpages: 3 untranslated

You can either get yourself a checkout of branches/1.8 and work on this, get the
files via the webinterface at gna.org or fetch them from the links from
gettext.wesnoth.org.
You should *not* start working on trunk right away since there will be really
heavy changes. Beside this I will not run a pot-update on trunk for the next ~4
weeks. 1.8 on the other hand will be updated regularly and I will inform you
about changes.
Once you eventually have a commit that should *only* go to trunk, please
explicitly mention that the commit is only for trunk in the mail when sending in
the po files. If there is no note "this update is only for trunk" or "this
update is only for 1.8" I will apply the update to both branches.
The next big changes in trunk include the addition of the new campaign "Dead
Water" as well as some "prose polishing" for some unit description (planned by 
esr).

Again: you should from now on, until I tell you to do differently, concentrate
on branches/1.8 instead of trunk.

The 1.8.1 release is still not planned yet. But most likely there will be more
than one week between the announcement of 1.8 and the release of 1.8.1. So you
got at least two weeks to fix the open strings.

Cheers,
Nils Kneuper aka Ivanovic
