String freeze for Lightning/Sunbird 0.8 postponed for another week

[Simon Paquet]

[Followup-To: mozilla.dev.l10n]

Hi guys,

Due to some outstanding UI work including new string introductions or
redefinitions, the Calendar developers have decided to push the string
freeze for the upcoming 0.8 release another week back.

The new string freeze will now be in effect on January 21st, 2008.

I know this sucks, but we feel that it is more honest, that we tell
you beforehand about slipping the string freeze instead of telling
you about various late-l10n strings later on.

Thank you for your continuing support!

Simon

For clarification: This is string freeze for en-US locale only.
Correct? If yes, what is the targeted string freeze for all other
locales?

FYI: Localizers have until February 7th. We will begin spinning the 0.8
RC1 on Feb. 8th morning (Europe time - CET).

Thanks again!
