[Qgis-tr] [Qgis-developer] size of translations, use a distinct repo?

[Stott, James]

As a slight side point, according to transifex it looks like we could have 13 fully translated languages for the GUI by the time 2.6 is released (13 languages are on 99% or more). 15 languages are over 95%. This is excellent news.

Is it something we should publise, maybe add to the visual changelog?

hmm - ok ..
Then I am going to give it a try without location and see if there are any problems with transifex or linguist ..
If not - I also think that way is perfect ..

Werner
