Technical updates
WordPress 4.6 Beta A pre-release of software that is given out to a large group of users to trial under real conditions. Beta versions have gone through alpha testing in-house and are generally fairly close in look, feel and function to the final product; however, design changes often occur as part of the process. 1 was released on Friday, June 1st. We are on schedule and the release is planned for August, 16th. Hard Freeze See String freeze. A hard string freeze or a hard freeze is announced when all the strings of the upcoming release are frozen including the strings of the About page. A hard freeze is the final string freeze before a release. will be a week before. General Translation Editors Translation editors can approve translations for projects. The GTE (General Translation Editor) and LM (Locale Manager) roles can add new users with the "Project Translation Editor" role that can approve translations for specific projects. There are two different Translation Editor roles:
General Translation Editor and Project Translation Editor (GTEs) will receive an announcement in mid July and again on the day of the hard freeze.
A new version of GlotPress will be released soon (see https://blog.glotpress.org/2016/06/29/glotpress-2-1-beta-1/). Most important change is the storage of the user ID of the validator/approver/rejector on translation status changes.

These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party Directory were discussed in relationship to get more translation contributors involved. Pascal (@casiepa) expressed some worries, the translation part might appear too little (see https://make.wordpress.org/meta/2016/05/20/plugin-directory-prototypes-single-view/#comment-8355, also https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1793) while Dominik (@ocean90) responded, it would be more important to redirect users to the localized pages.
