Having pushed the (guix transformations) patch=C2=B9, which also updates the manual and thus requires yet some more translation work, I think I don=E2= =80=99t have any serious changes to make and I=E2=80=99d be happy to branch now. W= DYT? There are a couple of pending issues, notably regarding locales in GRUB, but nothing big hopefully, and nothing that changes the manual and strings I believe. Thoughts? Tuesday 6th is approaching very fast and probably we=E2=80=99re be a bit be= hind schedule, we=E2=80=99ll see. Ludo=E2=80=99. =C2=B9 https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44321
