About testing before release to the general public. If the testing means delay of releasing updates, I would be in favour of release straight away. And if updates are not released on a regular basis due to the amount of work it requires, perhaps those who are doing it now could publish step-by-step instructions so that others can help.

Is there already a procedure documented for LanguagePackUpdates
somewhere? Only thing I found is this
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/LanguagePackUpdatesSchedule) but it seems
to be more general. If not, I think we should create documentation for
this to have a clear step-by-step plan to follow when releasing updates.

We should also determine the work required for LanguagePackUpdates and
maybe consider releasing less (or none?) updates for non-LTS releases in
favor of investing more time in correcting bugs and updating
translations for LTS releases.

Or we could provide LanguagePackUpdates for non-LTS releases in the
Translators PPA without testing every update right away.
As for the langpack updates, my understanding was that it was
bi-weekly. Has it evolved ? Can anyone chime in on this topic ?
I think, David wrote somewhere that they are exported bi-weekly but have
to be tested and approved manually to be released to "the general
public". The testing procedure is defined in the wiki
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/LanguagePackUpdatesQA).
