As currently written, we can fail before we get the localized strings. Also, there is very little chance that all of the current locales will get updated. Some locales are already missing strings.
I considered replacing the privacy notice with an error message, but it looks like the code will still call the abort tracker, so I ruled out that idea. Right now I'm leaning towards auto-displaying the log. -Alex On 3/10/14 10:58 AM, "OmPrakash Muppirala" <bigosma...@gmail.com> wrote: >I am not a big fan of flashing buttons or changing color of a button.
