We’re in string freeze.
Heads up on timing: We’re aiming to release 3.3 final before December 13.
Please post here and use the “core” tag if there are any issues, typos, etc. If we need to change a string, I will post here (and beg for forgiveness). Tickets with potential string changes will be marked with the ‘i18n-change’ keyword.

Before is when?

We haven’t discussed the timing yet, but RC is going well. We will be in RC for at least a week and translators will have at least one weekend. At the time of this writing, 41 languages are at greater than 90%, so it seems things are in very good shape.

Sounds good. Please remember to notify us something like 12 to 24 hours before release

What’s the deadline for translations? I have all done bar core which is at ~60% – keeps fluctuating cause someone keeps dumping new strings in it
I note that quite a lot of locales are in the same broad area… what’s the deal here if you don’t have 100% on the cutoff day? Sorry for the noob questions, not been through a l10n release on wordpress before.

You don’t need to release at the exact same time, especially not if it’s the first time WordPress is translated into a particular language. Just translate at you normal pace and release when you’re ready. (and by the way, “string freeze” = “no one dumps new strings”. If there are new strings, @nacin buys everyone drinks)

First “string” change is likely to be this: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/19427/19427.diff. I would beg forgiveness, but I’ll save that for string changes that will actually affect your amount of work.
