The translation deadline for OpenOffice 4.1.1 is set to July 18.

Please make sure that by that time you not only make the necessary updates, but also open the relevant issues (or send a note here to the l10n list). Tip: you can clone an existing issue in Bugzilla with the link at the bottom of the issue page when you are logged in.

1) New languages: if your language is not released in 4.1.0 http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html but is at 100% in Pootle https://translate.apache.org/projects/aoo40/ then open an issue to add it. You can clone https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125204 and modify the relevant values (when possible; not all languages are there, but we can deal with it).

2) Updated translations: no new strings were added since OpenOffice 4.0.0. So if your language is released in 4.0.0, 4.0.1 or 4.1.0 it will be released in 4.1.1 too. But, if you made corrections to your translation, you need to request that it is imported in 4.1.1. You can clone https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125130 and modify the relevant values; please state in the issue body if your language is ready to be imported already, meaning that you are no longer updating it.

3) New dictionaries: at http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/extensions.lst?view=markup you can see if we are bundling a dictionary for your language. You can add a dictionary provided that it is hosted on our Extensions site, http://extensions.openoffice.org/ ; open an issue like https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124212 adapting the relevant fields.

4) Update an existing dictionary: same as above, but specify the version we should download and include.

This time I'm CCing translators of languages that are not very far from completion in Pootle or that have recent activity, but future announcements will be sent to the list only. So do subscribe to the mailing list if you want to receive announcements: send an empty e-mail message to [email protected] and respond to the confirmation request you will receive.

Regards,
  Andrea.
