WordPress 6.2 is planned to be released on March 28, 2023. Currently, it’s at Release Candidate 2. Let’s work together to make sure the complete translations arrive in time!

• Please see the post WordPress 6.2 ready to be translated for translation instructions. As noted in the post, the import of WordPress 6.2 introduced about 260 new stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings., with 110 partial matches marked as fuzzy. 
• As usual, please confirm that your 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/ is ready for the automated release of a new WordPress package. (In short: if your locale uses any customized files—in most cases, localized versions of readme.html and/or wp-config-sample.php—then your locale needs to define the directory /branches/6.0 on i18n.svn.wordpress.org. Note that commit access to this directory is handled separately from the GTEGeneral Translation Editor A General Translation Editor (often referred to as GTE) is a person, who has global access to validate strings on all projects for a specific locale. role for a locale.)

Please don’t forget to join the polyglots channel on the Make WordPress Slack for important updates and to ask any questions. Your inquiry will help other translators, too!
