# So we are 24 hour from the new…

So we are 24 hour from the new release and no news about what have to be done or
not, the files in SVNSVN Apache Subversion (often abbreviated SVN, after its command
name svn) is a software versioning and revision control system. Software developers
use Subversion to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source
code, web pages, and documentation. Its goal is to be a mostly compatible successor
to the widely used Concurrent Versions System (CVS). WordPress core and the wordpress.
org released code are all centrally managed through SVN. https://subversion.apache.
org/. should be updated? package should be made? what about the origina idea to 
have everything in some way under glotpressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation
management software that powers [Translate.WordPress.org](http://translate.wordpress.org).
More information is available at [glotpress.org](http://glotpress.org/).? I undertsand
devs are in rush for bugs tickets etc but one more time people that give theyr time
to make WP in tons of languages are left alone with no info till the last minute
or after it

     * I always read every news here and around codex web etc about language wpitaly.
       it translate and validate WP since 2005 we are one of the earlier translation
       team for WP. The Nacin post (the old one) have left some thing undefinied and
       open and after all this there wans’t any news about. Proposal ideas ecc are 
       nice and ok, but ho much of the planned stuff where done? readmefile are still
       tobe updated manually and commit on SVNSVN Apache Subversion (often abbreviated
       SVN, after its command name svn) is a software versioning and revision control
       system. Software developers use Subversion to maintain current and historical
       versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation. Its goal
       is to be a mostly compatible successor to the widely used Concurrent Versions
       System (CVS). WordPress core and the wordpress.org released code are all centrally
       managed through SVN. https://subversion.apache.org/. ecc. Anyway we are few 
       hour far from the release, it’s a major releaseMajor Release A set of releases
       or versions having the same major version number may be collectively referred
       to as “X.Y” -- for example version 5.2.x to refer to versions 5.2, 5.2.1, and
       all other versions in the 5.2. (five dot two dot) branch of that software. Major
       Releases often are the introduction of new major features and functionality.
       so people is used to not jump on it immediatly for update and new installa without
       testing etc so if the localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination
       of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as 
       it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/)
       packages will be incomlete or have problems it’s not a drama. 4.0 adoption take
       longer than a maintenance release for compatibility test on existing sites, 
       we will see.
