Bug#463673: Announce of the upcoming NMU for the mdadm package

Dear maintainer of mdadm and Debian translators,

On Sunday, April 06, 2008 I sent a notice to the maintainer of the mdadm Debian
package, mentioning the status of at least one old po-debconf translation update in the BTS (bug #463673).

I announced the intent to build and possibly upload a non-maintainer upload
for this package in order to fix this long-time pending localization
bug as well as all other pending translations.

The package maintainer agreed for the NMU or did not respond in two
weeks, so I will proceed with the NMU.

The full planned schedule is available at the end of this mail.

The package is currently translated to: cs de es fi fr gl ja nl pt pt_BR ru sv vi

Among these, the following translations are incomplete: es pt_BR sv

If you did any of the, currently incomplete, translations you will get
ANOTHER mail with the translation to update.

Other translators also have the opportunity to create new translations
for this package. Once completed, please send them as a bug report
against the mdadm package so I can incorporate them in the build.

The deadline for receiving updates and new translations is Friday, May 02, 2008. If you
are not in time you can always send your translation to the BTS.

The POT file is attached to this mail.

If the maintainer objects to this process I will immediately abort my NMU
and send him/her all updates I receive.

Otherwise the following will happen (or already has):

 Sunday, April 06, 2008   : send the first intent to NMU notice to
                 the package maintainer.
 Tuesday, April 22, 2008       : send this notice
 Friday, May 02, 2008       : deadline for receiving translation updates
 Saturday, May 03, 2008       : build the package and upload it to DELAYED/0-day
                 send the NMU patch to the BTS
 Sunday, May 04, 2008       : NMU uploaded to incoming

Thanks for your efforts and time.
