Thanks, but please no more _("string") changes for the rest of the
cycle, as that would impact i18n folks who will be starting from
tagged -rc releases.

Please hold them off, and resend them after 2.4.0 final.

Thanks.

I thought that during a code freeze, you held onto patches or
committed them to a staging branch. But it's OK, I will resend after
2.4 final is released. Thanks for the clarification.

Yes, but that is done as time-permits basis, and it is much more
efficient to spread the load of remembering the topics that are
needed in future ;-)

Thanks.
