Dear translators, With the Jaunty beta release out and the string freeze in place, the time is right to work on translations for Ubuntu 9.04.
The langpack import problems of last cycle have not been a concern this time. https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+translations shows Spanish is the only language this time with > 90% translation, but five others - French, Swedish, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian, and British English - are > 80% translated. A number of other languages have a great opportunity here to overtake the British, too. :) The deadline for non-language pack translations (such as for the installer, Firefox, and debconf templates) is Thursday, April 9, and the deadline for language pack translations is a week later on April 16. The full timeline for the Jaunty release can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule for your reference. Thanks, -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
