Aaron and I think we're getting close to being ready to declare Hard
Freeze and String Freeze, however there are a few questions first:
1. There has been some recent discussion about some string fixes needed
to make the translations better. What is the status of this work?
Can this be finished up within a day or two?
2. For committing translations during the Hard Freeze, Aaron and I
would like to have an official Translations Integrator to handle
committing of all the translation patches. Arpad, do you have time
to take this role again this release? If not, then Cornelius, would
you be willing to take the role?
3. Must-Fix bugs: While serious, I don't consider the remaining
critical bugs to be complete show stoppers. If anyone disagrees,
this is the time to raise red flags (and bug id's).
Instead, we're going to go ahead and plan on a 0.45.1 release in a
few months to catch some of these issues.
