Re: [Wesnoth-dev] Final String Freeze for 1.0?

[Nils Kneuper]

I think especially the descriptions need to be completed very soon. They 
are even more work, than some campaigns. I would say one description is 
about the work of half a mission for a campaign (a campaign with much 
text). Because of this ESPECIALLY unit desciptions need time to be 
translated. The little changes to the texts in the campaigns are rather 
easy to translate. For the descriptions you do need to do a lot more 
thinking for fitting idoms and so on, in campaigns there are "spoken 
words" that are rather easy to finish.
It would be really great, if the strings were in very soon. I think you 
should commit as many as you have done right after the release of 0.9.3. 
This way some of the stuff is in. BTW how many description texts do you 
want to rewrite? Do you want to do all of them? For rewrites of all of 
them it is even for very active translators almost impossible to 
complete them in 4 weeks. That is why the changed ones need to be in 
very soon. You should not forget that translators do need to spend time 
on proofreading their translations, too. For this you do AT LEAST need 
about 2 weeks for the whole lot. Normally there are not so many people 
who do this job, that is why it takes much time.
