String freezeString freeze The term "string freeze" is used by the core team to mark the end of changes to the strings of an upcoming release. A string freeze also means that there will be no more strings added to the core project. Sometimes a string freeze has two phases a soft freeze and a hard freeze. A string freeze is announced on the Polyglots blog by the current release lead.. By now you have probably noticed that WordPress 3.6 RC1 was released a little more than a week ago. This usually corresponds to a string freeze, though there’s been a bit of a drip-drip of some more stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. that needed to be translated.

At this point, please consider strings formally frozen. If there are any necessary changes, @markjaquith and I will beg for forgiveness.

Well, we’ll actually start begging for forgiveness in advance. The about page has not been updated for 3.6, and we will be pushing all of those strings in the next 24-36 hours. Once pushed, there will be no changes to them (previously, we’ve tinkered with them a bit); it too will be frozen. The about page is a good amount of strings, but since so many of you are so far along in translating WordPress 3.6 (many of you only have two dozen short strings to go), we’re really confident in your abilities — and, of course, appreciate your hard work in making WordPress available in your language.

Timeline: At this time, I would expect WordPress 3.6 to be released early next week.
