Thank you for reminding me! The beta tester group is definitely part of the process. In fact, one of the corrective measures I must add is incorporate data collection and reporting on plugins, preferences, console output, exceptions and crash logs.

I’m currently preparing the site for an upgrade, which should allow me to add nested comments to requests. This way I can make a separate request for each language or region, then post each file which needs to be localized for the request, and then members can comment on changes to specific files directly. That should help minimize unrelated commentary from muddying up one localization’s progress from another’s.

While I’d like to provide some compatibility for current plugins, I’d also like to add additional functionality for plugin authors so they can do more as well as be able to find and fix their bugs easily as well.

Ah, the chance to relax is welcome, but brief. While it isn’t Mori air I’m breathing as much now (or hyperventilating), it’s the website or build settings or tools or something. Keeping the air circulating is generally positive.

I just wanted to add to your imagined more ideal development process: still count us betatesters in – I mean with versions which produce more log-output etc.

What about other localizations?

Sth. else: I really hope that further changes will not mess up the working plugins.

Enjoy the chance to take a breath after that frenzy period.
