Hi Dylan, Could you list the exact strings that are changed? I'd like to see them before +1'ing this one. The Ubiquity Slideshow is not part of the documentation string freeze [1], and I would have expected changes to have landed much earlier. Any late changes in things like the installer or the slideshow leave much less time for translators to complete the translations, and most importantly, to test them. As they are not part of the language packs, they cannot be tested often, and more than one team (mine included) has been bitten by having completed translations just in time, having them deployed, and ending up with a glaring typo that can no longer be fixed. Now it might well be that the delay has been caused by the Canonical team giving you the strings very late. If this is the case, please let me know and I'll make sure to make this point clear to them. In order to ease the work of translators, would it be possible to include translations from LP on every slideshow upload from now on? Or even better, I think a while ago you set up a web page with the localized versions of the slideshow that were updated regularly. That was extremely useful. Would it be possible to set that up again? Thanks. Cheers, David.

We are changing some copy for the Ubuntu slideshow. The changes are available with the merge request: https://code.launchpad.net/~dylanmccall/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/quantal-ubuntu-copy/+merge/126337 This will replace 13 strings that had previously been translated for 12.04. The other visible changes for 12.10 — new screenshots and illustrations — will happen separately, because it is important we get these new strings in nice and quickly so they can be translated.
