Bug#649107: Announce of the upcoming NMU for the nvidia-support package

Dear maintainer of nvidia-support and Debian translators,

Some days ago, I sent a notice to the maintainer of the nvidia-support Debian
package, mentioning the status of at least one old po-debconf translation update in the BTS.

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 four
days, 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 it ja nl pt ru sk sv zh_CN

Among these, the following translations are incomplete: es fi it ja pt sk zh_CN

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 nvidia-support package so I can incorporate them in the build.

The deadline for receiving updates and new translations is Friday, January 20, 2012. 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):

 Saturday, January 07, 2012   : send the first intent to NMU notice to
                 the package maintainer.
 Thursday, January 12, 2012       : send this notice
 Friday, January 20, 2012       : (midnight) deadline for receiving translation updates
 Saturday, January 21, 2012       : build the package and upload it to DELAYED/7-day
                 send the NMU patch to the BTS
 Saturday, January 28, 2012       : NMU uploaded to incoming

Thanks for your efforts and time.
