It seems that the plan is time skewed in favour of .dix files (imho the
easier task). If anything I would say that 7 weeks on transfer and 2
weeks on dictionaries seems more sensible. 

I think that it might be a good idea to go through the language pair
HOWTO, and see what kind of errors/pitfalls you come across that aren't
handled by the validation programs.
