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?

That was what I was not sure about: all the new features and bug fixes for OOo will be merged to the LO tree for 3.4.

In that case yes, we want the l10n repo merged and containing all the new features or fixes strings from OOo. And the sooner the better whatever the amount of strings :-) So that means that we can extract the strings from the last OOoDEV and merge them with our LO file to have the complete (UI+HC2) set of strings up to date until now?

Thanks to you and your patience Kendy :)
Kind regards
Sophie
