What does this mean for locales?

Or more specifically, what does it mean for my locale?
Is there any chance for beta7 to be published in the macedonian locale?

We are following mozilla-central pretty well at this time, so if you
give me a date we can be green in time.

Hi Damjan,

sorry for the late response here, I wanted to check my notes and I've
been all over the place in last few days. As you can see in my other
post, ETA is now, so I've taken your statement here to be a pseudo
opt-in, and carried that forward to the dashboard. The 46 missing
strings aren't a blocker.

Mind fixing the warnings in syncSetup.properties still? Those are the
most not-beautiful things I've seen in the stats.

Hope that's OK with you, B7 has you now.

Axel
