You have about 14 hours to complete your translations for WordPress 4.0.

I’ve added one last stringString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings., “Release LeadRelease Lead The community member ultimately responsible for the Release.,” for use on the credits page. If you were at 100% for 4.0, don’t worry, you have a language pack built already, but it’d be nice if you could translate this.

Please ensure you are 100% for wp/dev, wp/dev/admin, and wp/dev/admin/network. Currently 19 languages have done this (minus the new string).

pl_PL, he_IL, my_MM, and eu (Basque) are all at 100% for wp/dev but are not at 100% for the administration projects. Another 30 languages are at 90% or higher for wp/dev — so close!

WPLANG should be removed from wp-config-sample.php. If you have a custom wp-config-sample.php file in your 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/. trunk/dist directory, please update it. See how German did it here.

If you are translating via SVN please make sure you are importing each of your PO filesPO files PO files are human readable files which contain translations we use. These files are not used by WordPress itself. Each language will have its own PO file, for example, for French there would be a fr_FR.po file, for german there would be a de_DE.po, for British English there might be en_GB.po. into translate.wordpress.orgtranslate.wordpress.org The platform for contributing to the translation of WordPress core, themes and plugins., for language packs.
