Maybe we should take the next few business days and go thru Bugz
and see what, if anything, would be low-risk patches to trunk and
pencil in, say, Dec 7th as a "code freeze" date for builds...
Someone here is forgetting that the biggest chunk of work for 4.2.0 is
with localization. We need to fix the code -> Pootle -> code process and
this won't be trivial at all since we have scarce documentation, little
knowledge and a half-broken situation in Pootle when the last import was
done at some unspecified time. It is not impossible of course, but it
does need some serious work.
+1...this is a BIGGIE for 4.2.0 in my mind.
So you can provide all the builds you wish, but I would expect that most
of them display localization issues and a localization cycle in 40+
languages usually takes a couple months (once we have fixed the process).
I'm absolutely in favor of a public beta, well publicized and clearly
marked as beta (with its own splash screen etc). This is not the point.
Point is, if you want something out in 2017 then English+kid languages
will be enough, and please call it Alpha or Beta-1 or something that
makes it clear that there will have to be another Beta in a few months
with working localized versions.

Andrea.
