Announce of the upcoming NMU for the zephyr package

Dear Debian translators,

The zephyr Debian package has a pending bug report, mentioning the
status of a pending "switch to po-debconf" bug report in the BTS (bug
#199684).

This package is maintained by Karl Ramm, which is now in the process
of being recorded as MIA,, unfortunately.

I hereby announce the intent to build and possibly upload a
non-maintainer upload for this package in order to fix this long-time
pending internationalization bug and merging any localization bugs
report after (and these bugs only).

The package is currently translated to: es fr ru

The following translations are incomplete: <none>
       (even after applying pending l10n bugs, of course)

If you did any of the, currently incomplete, translations you will get a
copy of this announcement BCCd to you. Please review the translation.

Other translators also have the opportunity to create new translations for
this package. Once completed, please send them directly to me so I can
incorporate them into the package being built.

The deadline for receiving updates and new translations is 22 mar 2005. If you
are not in time you can always send your translation to the BTS.

You can download the pot, and any po, files from:

  http://people.debian.org/~lwall/i18n/pots/zephyr

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):

 15 mar 2005   : post a NMU announcement to debian-i18n with you
                 (maintainer) CC'ed
 22 mar 2005   : deadline for receiving translation updates
 24 mar 2005   : build the package and upload it to DELAYED/2-day
                 send the NMU patch to the BTS
 26 mar 2005   : NMU uploaded to incoming
 27 mar 2005   : NMU enters unstable

Thanks for your efforts and time.
