Hi Sophie,

This is why I ask: do we merge Libo with the last dev versions or do we
work on the last SDF file only (I think it's OOo330m9) because it is now
two completely separated products?

We are still working towards a plan how to cherry pick or merge from OOo
from now on, so do not expect any huge changes in the next 2 weeks or
so ;-)  We have to evaluate the possibilities first, but most probably,
this will be more on case-by-case basis, ie. the amount of strings to
translate will grow at reasonable pace, not a huge drop of stuff to
translate from a day to day.

Our concerns here, with Olivier and the few of us not doing localization 
for OOo any more, is that the localization will be done by someone else, 
may be a professional agency. Most of the time the quality is very very 
low because the agencies know nothing about the product where we work 
with it and localize it since years. So, no matter the amount of 
strings, if we are sure of the consistency and we do not have to 
research in the files to ensure it. Currently there is a little more 
than 6000 new/fuzzy words until DEV300m90, it's not so much and even 
less if we have a long deadline ;)

Ah, maybe I understand now ;-)  So of course, it is up to you to define
if you want to have the translations merged from the OOo tree to the LO
tree for 3.4, or not.  I understand it that you'd prefer not to, ie.
l10n repo (containing the localize.sdf's) untouched by the merges from
OOo, right?

Thank you,
Kendy
