Summary0004477: Polish translation update for 1.3.3.5
DescriptionAs stated above
Additional Information==Constructive critisism==
Since it's happened for the 2nd time (SuSE release again), I feel entitled to critisize without any intention to cause a flame war (that's why I don't send it to the mailing list):

Peter, please give us decent amount of time to catch up with our translations next time. 2 weeks are the absolute minimum! I understand this particular situation with the upcoming SuSE release, but even if you weren't 100% sure about the final release date, we simply deserve a pre-warning, kind of "Guys, be prepared, because... etc." to have at least a chance to deliver proper quality in time. We have some 30 translators with jobs and families, who've been waiting for this first quasi stable 1.3.* release for more than 2 years, and I consider it simply not OK to tell them: "Hurry, hurry, you have one week or never mind...". Those of them who have more than a few strings to catch up, will probably mind, because they want to deliver proper support for their languages. I can only hope, a new bugfix release for SuSE 10.2 with updated translations will follow soon.

Maciej, I agree with you however we released the email and then the notice the day after we heard and agreed we should attempt to get into Suse 10.2. (Which I might add, we might do if we were privy to other distros release dates).

On the other side, I would actually think it somewhat appropriate for a translator to actually be keeping up rather than leaving it all to the end. I don't, but I dont have to do so much work there.

I will try to think of a better way, perhaps related to the release metabugs, as we should reduce the inconvenience as much as possible. Sorry for the hassle, thanks for your efforts.

Craig, what do you think of creating a metabug for "Translation updates", encouraging our all translators to monitor it, and using it to issue pre-warnings and warnings about the upcoming releases in a less formal manner?

At the moment downloads are not working on bugs.

Maciej, I'm closing this now but we should talk about the bug idea. I have a couple of issues, first, some translators might not be bugs users. Secondly, and a general issue I have with metabugs, is that they never get closed.. and I dont like bugs that never get closed. :) In fact, I would hope that all will be closed at some point, perhaps when we finally get to 1.4.0. New ones can be created for future work then.
