To be honest, it was *very* hard for me to find time just before the
freeze, but I did find it and corrected mistakes in *all* the packages
so that the greek community can give us feedback from test3. It is sad
to find out that those sleepless nights were not necessary... And of
course I'm sure many other contributors might feel the same way.

The feedback we receive from the community always comes from test
releases. Especially from the test3 release.

Can we have then a point on the schedule where the translations should
freeze, so that maintainers know when they should grab a fresh copy of
the po files. I'm suppose this could be done even at the last moment.


Thanks.
