Dear maintainer of util-linux and Debian translators, Some days ago, I sent a notice to the maintainer of the util-linux Debian package, mentioning the status of at least one old translation update in the BTS.
I announced the intent to build and possibly upload a non-maintainer
upload for this package in order to fix this long-time pending
localization bug as well as all other pending translations.
The package maintainer agreed for the NMU or did not respond in a week,
so I will proceed with the NMU.
The full planned schedule is available at the end of this mail.
The package documentation is currently translated to many languages, but
two complete translations (fr and vi), had not been updated upstream
when this version was published, and there have been a few more changes
(including Debian-specific ones), so this call is merely to offer cs,
fr, nl, pl and vi translators a chance to complete there translation in
time for Wheezy. These are the current stats:

If you did any of the, currently incomplete, cs, nl, pl, or vi
translations you will get *another* mail with the translation to update.
I won't bug other translators, but if you're interested to help in other
translations (new or currently outdated), I invite you to get in touch
with the previous translator and the translation team:
http://translationproject.org/domain/util-linux.html
The deadline for receiving updates and new translations is Friday,
August 24, 2012. If you are not in time you can always send your
translation to the BTS.
If the maintainer objects to this process I will immediately abort my
NMU and send him/her all updates I receive.
Otherwise the following will happen (or already has):
Tuesday, August 7, 2012 : send the first intent to NMU notice to
the package maintainer.
Wednesday, August 15, 2012 : send this notice
Friday, August 24, 2012 : deadline for receiving translation
updates
Saturday, August 25, 2012 : build the package and upload it to
DELAYED/10-day, send the NMU patch to the BTS.
Thursday, September 4, 2012 : NMU reaches incoming
Regards
David
