Hi there,
I still couldn't find your mail anywhere - which sucks, so I cut/pasted
from IRC, you suggested it'd be ok to CC the list - so I did that
too :-)

I did that - it is awesome :-) you've done a simply fantastic job !
thanks for taking that burden away, you rock.

Right - I think perhaps we need to get less paranoid about that, and
make the page public, to help others translate it etc. but simply not
link it directly from the front-page (how does that sound) ?
It'd be great if someone could do that.

Fantastic :-) the release is scheduled for tomorrow - Wed (or perhaps
Thursday) if we need another day.

Sounds fine to me :-) We should prolly link to the other one with some
"And lots more distinctive features from 3.3" at the bottom (or
something).

I love it at least :-) though I like the highlight features in a
smaller table at the top (I think that was more helpful when we suddenly
had lots of them for 3.3.x since they were all merged in quickly).

I guess publishing it helps; I guess Andras / Sophie could prolly start
to help co-ordinate that on the l10n list.

I guess it is here :-)
So - summary, this is wonderful - you start to get me excited about the
release - which is good :-) hopefully that spreads the excitement around
in time for our release ...
Thanks again !
Michael.
