Why? People might want to build themselves and want their latest
translations included. There are only 10-15 active languages, we can
handle it in the sporadic way, too.

The entire "build" repository including lo-build* files will be
removed very soon from master. We should not use master for 3.3
translations.

It's the best if we don't wait for somebody else, but start to find
out how to work. We don't need a complicated process, because it will
be used only once (only for 3.3).

A few teams have already updated their data on
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Translation_for_3_3. When we have a
deadline, all po files from the teams who have YES in their Pootle
column should be committed to git (libreoffice-3-3 branch). If the
team has NO or nothing in their Pootle column, then it will be the
responsibility of the language team leader to send their translation
to this list by the deadline. Translations may come from
Novell/openSUSE as well, as the did in the past. Ideally it will not
interfere with our work, i.e. they work on only those languages which
we don't work on. How can we make sure? Petr?

Thanks,
Andras
