Greetings from Tauberbischofsheim and http://www.kde.de

[edit] Managing announcements for KDE releases

• Ask promo people about the status of announcement 14 (at least 10) days before release
• Start bothering the promo people 7 days before release to get some time for all our translators ;-)
• As soon as Sebas says it is ready you can send out message to translator list

btw. where to put the list? Right now I keep on my PC and encrypted below

• Whenever a translation arrives at your inbox please add it to SVN and maintain language bar.
• Remove "exit();" statement in each file on release day

Locations to know:

• https://svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/www/sites/www/announcements
• Language bar file: ./announce-i18n-bar.inc

[edit] Hints for promo people

• Please give translators a chance to have translations done on release day
• Do not change english announcement after it was sent to translator. Fixing typo is not the point here :-)
