Right. Maybe we should split this into 2 parts:

1. The very first build(s) to handle fixes for build breaker:
IMHO here it should be enough to have en-US only

2. If this is done the next builds can be also used for looking into the localizations.

We had the following set of languages for our developer milestones (DEV300 and OOO340):
- English (US) as master language
- German due to historical reasons and we had the most testers here
- French for the same reason IMHO and long strings
- Japanese due the CJK characters and to test RTL writing
- Russian due to Cyrillic charachters
- Arabic due to the characters and to test bidi writing

So, we could stick with this (or maybe exchange the one or other language if is no volunteer to test at the moments, maybe French --> Brazilian-Portuguese ?).

3. Tests for release builds are out of scope at the moment, but more language tests the better.

BTW:
We have also smoke tests. If I'm not wrong these should be included in the source code.

It might be useful to make a distinction between two things:

1) What is needed to have a successful first build?

2) What is needed to have a successful first release?
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Release-Translate-Plan)

For a first build, I think our main task will be to ensure that we
didn't break anything by moving over from Oracle's servers to Apache
servers.  We want to define a simple set of tests that could be done
after the initial move.  But we would also want to run these tests on
a regular basis,even daily.  At work we call these "smoke tests".  I
don't know what the equivalent name is for OOo.

So what is the easiest test that we can do to verify that localization
is not broken in OOo?


For a public release, this will be much more complicated.

IMHO you can do such little changes without to ask.

We should extended the languages to Russian (due to Cyrillic letters) and
Portuguese resp. Brazilian-Portuguese (due to long compared to other
languages).

Can you read my comments on the page above?

Can I delete the previous list and start the new list?
