Hello translators,
Our next LTS, Ubuntu 22.04, will be released very soon. Since this time
of the cycle is optimal — we are well beyond both UserInterfaceFreeze[1]
and DocumentationStringFreeze[2] — to provide translations via
Launchpad, I wanted to post this heads-up.
Two deadlines apply:
1. NonLanguagePackTranslationDeadline[3]: April 7
Some packages, for which the translations are not dealt with via the
language packs, need special translation updates via package uploads.
Examples here are ubiquity, ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu (multiple
translation templates), and ubuntu-docs[4].
2. LanguagePackTranslationDeadline[5]: April 14
This is the same date as Final Freeze. Translations added to most
packages in Ubuntu's "main" until this date will be available to the
users on the release day (April 21).
