That sounds to be a good plan. Having the "polished" 4.1.* version go
its way through testing and then have 4.2 follow the same way.

(if 4.2 introduce changes tha impact debconf l10n, we could even do a
translation update round for it even while it is sitting in
experimental).

So, to summarize:

- Olivier polishes 4.1.2-3.2 (ou -4 depeds on whether this is still
considered an NMU or not), including debconf templates wording
- He sends me at least the templates file and the full patch to Sven
- I post a call for translation for 4.1.2
- translators have 10 days to update
- I summarize translator's work (usually with a big tarball of
debian/po as I check every incoming PO file)
- Olivier prepares 4.1.2-3.2 (or -4) with that
- I sponsor it


While I work on 4.1.2 l10n, Sven adopts Olivier's changes and prepares
a 4.2 upload. If that needs changes to debconf templates, we review
them and I send *another* call for translation updates juste after the
above 10 days delay (so that translations sent for 4.1 can be reused
as a basis for 4.2). Then, summary and  upload to experimental (I can
sponsor here, again).

And, once 4.1 reaches testing, you guys can upload 4.2 to unstable.
