     + not many builds last week
     + script listing failures here started to fail, needs fixing

* l10n (Sophie)
   + one contributor unhappy because of a large commit (326 strings) on 
Help files 4 days before string freeze
   + one UI string committed some hours before string freeze but I 
accepted it
     + I missed to comment on the patch
   + currently sorting out the problem with him, working on a policy
     https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/3611
     + not much different from what we already have (Cloph)
       + reminder to please not do large UI changes shortly before freeze
     + not able to update help after string freeze (Olivier)
       + leading to shipping versions with poor help content
       + better to exclude help content from string freeze
       + weblate allows continuous update of the Help during product life
     + string freezing mostly works with very few exceptions (Cloph)
       + rolling help might only work when delaying the pick to the 
branch/after translators had a chance to translate on master

* What’s cooking (Miklos)
