Re: UNR translations blueprint

      * The translation templates for Karmic UNR will be blocked until
        user interface freeze [2], so whenever you see those templates
        (listed in the spec) in the imports queue, please do not accept
        them until the string freeze date. As explained in the rationale
        section of the spec, this will help minimizing the work in
        bringing Ubuntu changes to the upstream project by avoiding
        having two different places where translation takes place. After
        the string freeze, Ubuntu translators will then be able to
        translate them for Karmic as usual, but the assumption is that
        the translation will have first happened upstream and Karmic
        translations will only involve fixes if necessary.

If you've got any questions or comments, please feel free to ask.

Suggestion for the string freezes: import templates from a bzr branch, so there are never any manual uploads in the first place, and disable imports from bzr during freezes.
