If there may be additional 2.10.x releases, then we should list the
gnome-2-10 branches in our GNOME 2.10 translation status pages, like we
always do with other modules that have branched into stable gnome-2-10
branches.
Otherwise, translators committing new, updated, or improved translations
to libgnomeprint* HEAD would become very disappointed when they later
discovered that their changes weren't included in the libgnomeprint
releases for GNOME 2.10.x.
That's why the statement "Translators should continue to pull from HEAD"
confused me. Thanks for clarifying this. I have now updated the GNOME
2.10 translation status pages to show the libgnomeprint* gnome-2-10
branches.
