Having pushed the (guix transformations) patch¹, which also updates the manual and thus requires yet some more translation work, I think I don’t have any serious changes to make and I’d be happy to branch now. WDYT? There are a couple of pending issues, notably regarding locales in GRUB, but nothing big hopefully, and nothing that changes the manual and strings I believe. Thoughts? Tuesday 6th is approaching very fast and probably we’re be a bit behind schedule, we’ll see. Ludo’. ¹ https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44321
