Negative press? Do you have a link? Remember, we didn't drop anything. For example, we had released no translation of French 4.0 last week, because 4.0 was not done. Now that 4.0 is done and the translation is done, we can release both. Does that mean we dropped French last week? No it just means it was not ready to release yet. When the same conditions are met for other languages, we release them as well. So we're not dropping anything. We're merely releasing the translations that are done now rather than waiting longer for the ones that are still in progress. We did the exact same thing before with AOO 3.4.1. > My personal feeling is that it would be good since it would give us a place > to direct user with support questions to for a definitive statement, but I > also recognize how controversial this topic can be. > I added a statement to the release notes explaining that more translations are coming and telling how interested parties can volunteer to help.
