RC1 doesn't contain all the translations as string freeze is due at this
time.  The only version we get to check our work is RC2.

Hum, RC3 is final so it's considering that we don't need to test l10n
versions. As you said bug hunting is to attract more people and I would
like to give this chance to NL projects too.
But I understand that testing versions before might be more important
