I am understanding that naturally Alpha does not contain latest 
translation but Beta and after should. Alpha has been composed early 
August just around string freeze date.

Yes, I strongly agree.
We like to make sure that latest translation is correctly included and 
it's quality for final release. Therefore 'live image will be composed 
by release-engineering for software review', about a week before 
translation deadline as described in the task schedule. This image 
should contain latest translation. If any issue is found, a bug can be 
filed (and hopefully fixed by Beta change deadline) or direct 
modification can be made to PO files before translation deadline.
For this purpose, we will have L10N test day.

Everything in this image, plus any modification made during review 
period, should be included in Beta and after.
