No problem, I would have preferred another way, but this is less work now.

I'm renaming this subthread, since we all agree on the 4.0.1 proposal in itself and discussions are only on the Pootle update now.

I see in Pootle that the project names, after the discussion here, now follow the same pattern of 4.0.0: "aoo401" and "aoo401help": perfect.

The point where I and Juergen disagree is how many languages should be available in Pootle.

My deepest concern is that we don't waste the translators' time and that we are prepared to receive help immediately. So, for me, now is the time for importing everything from SDF to Pootle: we still have at least three languages (sr, sh, bg) where volunteers have been waiting for more than one week for us to put 4.0.0 in Pootle.

Juergen, how can we guarantee that this is not the bottleneck if we don't import everything now? As for creating Pootle accounts, I usually create them within 24 hours, which is fine. But creating a Pootle project (a new language) looks more complex and more critical.

As for the rest, see http://markmail.org/message/4oxacrviktdbmbcv but some important remarks are:

1) Languages that have 3.4.1 but not 4.0.0 in Pootle: preserve their work in the "aoo401" project (I don't know what this entails, but I assume that Jan's remarks about merging with the 4.0 templates apply here)

2) Languages that have 4.0.0 in Pootle: preserve their work in the "aoo401" project (so, Jan, I believe that cloning aoo400->aoo401 is OK for this).

3) Make "aoo401" the only active/writable/actionable/visible project, whatever options Pootle offers: volunteers should not be able to work on 3.4.1 or 4.0.0 on Pootle any longer, it would be wasted time.

(Obviously, the same holds for "aoo401help")

  Andrea.
