Before we go ahead, I'd sort of like confirmation first that the release
team would actually accept this, given that it goes rather beyond the
usual run of the mill for translation updates and that there are already
two outstanding uploads in unstable not yet in testing:

grub2 (1.98+20100804-10) unstable; urgency=low

  * fix_crash_condition_in_kfreebsd_loader.patch: Import from upstream.
    Fixes crash condition in case kfreebsd_* commands are used after
    kfreebsd has (gracefully) failed.

grub2 (1.98+20100804-9) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Robert Millan ]
  * Import from upstream:
    - refuse_embedingless_cross_disk.patch: Refuse to do a cross-disk
      embeddingless install rather than creating a broken install.
    - fix_grub_install_error_msg.patch: Replace useless recomendation to
      pass --modules with a recomendation to report a bug.
    - message_refresh.patch: Make error messages visible again. (Closes: #605485)

  [ Jordi Mallach ]
  * Update Catalan translation with latest file from the Translation Project.

  [ Updated translations ]
  * Slovenian (Vanja Cvelbar).  Closes: #604003
  * Dzongkha (dawa pemo via Tenzin Dendup).  Closes: #604102

I'd like us to have a chance to do a technical review of the template
changes first, please.  We can handle the upload (and it would be easier
if we did, since that would let us keep revision control in sync), but
help with translation coordination would be welcome.

Thanks,
