I doubt every PO files would arrive quickly, so
maybe we could release a private tarball, wait a
week and integrate PO that arrives during that
week, while any message change would be frozen,
and then at the end of the week release the public
package.

PO that arrive after that week would go into the
next version (or just in SVN during some time if
for the next version the PO arrive quickly enough).

We also should allow ourselves to release versions
without any translation delay if data safety is
concerned.
