I would like to point out that according to the release schedule at: http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/koffice-1.2-release-plan.html that the last date for documentation changes was set for August 13, 2002 a full 6 days later than the last commit to the KWord documentation. There was no break in the release schedule! I am all in favor for extending the release date to allow better translation for our users. It really does not matter why a problem occurred, if two days is going to dramatically improve the status of documentation translation we should extend it two days. Please do not go around blaming the documentation writer -- I followed the schedule! > I'm not very much in favour of that second solution, because it is likely > to bring other trouble (what if people did manually a xml2pot and a > msgmerge for example?
