Could you please point me to those bugs? As there is now a new process for
publishing docs translations, it'd be good to move them to the publishing
requests component so that docs publishers can take care of them.

The thing is that the Docs Project tends to lack the manpower required to
keep all the relevant guides up-to-date, unfortunately. Since many of us
have a lot of different doc projects to work on, we only managed to publish
the User Guide as a draft in the last development cycle.

If any of you guys are willing to help out with the guides updates for the
upcoming release, you're most welcome to join our team. We are always in
need of fresh blood.
