Feature Freeze
by Joshua A. Andler
Hi all,
We're ready to move into Feature Freeze. No further feature work is
permitted at this point. Any remaining tasks regarding documentation
needs to be wrapped up ASAP, as we will be moving to string freeze soon.
Feature Freeze entails:
No further development work.
Disable features that aren't finished
Post additional inkscape-0.48-pre*.tar.gz releases
Focus on critical bug fixing.
Finalize all tutorials, docs, etc.
Finalize all extensions
Finalize about screen
Translators create translations.
Inkscape must pass 'make distcheck'
Establish the Stable Branch for release
Disable features that won't be turned on in the release
Post inkscape-0.48-beta.tar.gz
-----
Here's a tentative release schedule (please, lets try to stick to this):
Today (6/1) is Feature Freeze
Monday (6/7) will be String Freeze
Monday (6/21) will be Hard Freeze
Monday (6/28) will be Release
-----
To stick to this we need to address the following.
@Felipe: It appears that either your device-cmyk work needs to get
disabled at this time, which was suggested by Jon in the previous
thread. Will you be able to address this soon? Please let us know. Bug
542346
@Jon: Please get the "UX" selector in that toolbar sorted ASAP. Are the
"Auto" swatches initially editable in the F&S dialog yet? If not, it's
looking like they'll need to be disabled again for this release.
@Johan: I see you think you've fixed the LPE issue that bulia reported,
thank you!
@Tavmjong: Awesome work on the Text Tool! Is there anything else that is
a "must" to get in/fixed? If so, is it looking feasible to get done in
time with your schedule? Also, it appears that bug 583593 is assigned to
you, any progress?
If there are any other issues that have been overlooked please let me
know. Thanks to everyone for all of your hard work!
Cheers,
Josh

UI Indonesian Translation
by Waluyo Adi Siswanto
Dear Inkscape Developers
Actually I have been using Inkscape for several years.
I am now interested to contribute as a translator of in my native
language "Indonesia"
I am just wondering whether I can contribute to Inkscape as one of translators.
I have experiences in translating several open source software (UI
translator) as the main (Indonesian) translator: LyX, Avogadro and
JMol.
I have downloded the id.po from
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/changes
Another question is how can I submit the translated id.po. Can I just
send it to this mailing-list or to another email?
Best Regards
WAS

Grammar error in web slicer extension.
by Marcin Floryan
Hi!
Unfortunately I have found a grammar error in the English text for one
extensions (web slicer group creation).
It says:
*Layout Group is only about to help a better code generation (if you need
it). To use this, you must to select some \"Slicer rectangles\" first.*
It should be either:
*Layout Group is only about to help a better code generation (if you need
it). To use this, you must select some \"Slicer rectangles\" first.*
or:
*Layout Group is only about to help a better code generation (if you need
it). To use this, you have to select some \"Slicer rectangles\" first.*
As we're in string freeze now I will not correct it unless it's OK for
everyone to do so.
It's not a big thing and I'm sure translations will not have any mistakes so
it's really only for English. I bet it can wait for the next version.
Regards,
Marcin

Indonesian Translation
by Arturo Silva
Hello. My name is Arturo Silva and I'm co-developer to the fledgling
visual novel project @CameliaGirls, as well as a long-time Inkscape
user and supporter (~4 years).
Due to recent discussions with my project counterparts in Indonesia,
it came to my attention that the Indonesian translation for Inkscape
is not complete. Therefore, in order to help improve Inkscape's
appeal to graphic artists in the country, I'm looking to sponsor the
full translation of the program's UI, and other pertinent material,
into the Indonesian language. Our lead Indonesian translator for our
visual novel project is very interested in this job, and is looking
forward to starting this some time next week.
He is currently in the process of reviewing the Inkscape Translation
Information page and may post here within the next few days, but if
there's anything you think we should take into consideration before
starting this translation effort, please let me know. I don't intend
for this to be available in the 0.48 release, but I sincerely hope
that the 0.49 release (as well as any developer snapshots prior to
this) will benefit greatly from this additional language option.
Thank you.

Feature & String Freezes
by Joshua A. Andler
Hey all,
Just wanted to let everyone know that Feature & String Freezes are now
in effect. Only behind by a day right now, so that's pretty good. :)
Translators please do your magic with the confidence that we won't be
changing strings. :)
Cheers,
Josh
