Translation
This section covers the news surrounding the Fedora Translation (L10n) Project.

Contributing Writer: Runa Bhattacharjee
Preview Version of Release Notes Available
The .pot file of the F10 Release Notes was[1] finally made available. The preview version was delayed[2] due to a shortage of beat writers, rewriting and a bug in xml2po that prevented the creation of the .pot file for translators. The file is available from the Fedora git repository and translations can be submitted via https://translate.fedoraproject.org.

String Freeze Breaks
Anaconda and firstboot modules broke[3] in the String Freeze. The new strings in the naconda module were[4] a result of the earlier non-creation of the .pot file. A request for a string freeze break for the comps module was rejected[5] by FTP. DimitrisGlezos suggested[6] that a separate string freeze policy/schedule for comps can be discussed upon for the future releases.
Fedora packages are[7] currently string frozen for Fedora 10: no new translated messages can be added without the prior permission of the Fedora Localization Team as per the String Freeze Policy[8].
