I also want to point out that I intend for us to get iteratively more strict about freezing our documentation for translators as time goes on. So, for instance, if we get a sufficient number of documents out of "incomplete", we may implement a freeze on all "review" and "candidate" documents 72 hours prior to each stable release. In doing so, however, I'd like to push the release team to get more strict about module inclusion based on documentation. We absolutely cannot ask for this unless we're hopping along, and we can truthfully pin the blame on uncooperative maintainers. But I would like us to be able to demand proposed modules have documentation that's at least in the "incomplete" or even the "draft" stage by the time module decisions happen. There are three to four months between proposals and decisions. That ought to be more than enough time. -- Shaun _______________________________________________ gnome-doc-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-doc-list
