This report is a bit special: since we release every 6 weeks, there is no release this month. The next one is planned for the 12th of May. Therefore there are no code news, the work being done will be reported when it's released :)

However, like any Free Software project, TelestaiCB is not only about the code, so here are the news about the other parts of the project!

Documentation and website

• We wrote a small documentation about Claws Mail.

• We corrected some details in the manual installation documentations, the verification documentation, and related FAQ questions.

• We added a FAQ entry about why we ship the GNOME Desktop.

• We added a FAQ entry about why we don't sell preinstalled TelestaiCB devices.

• We added (yet another) FAQ entry about why you shouldn't edit your torrc.

• ... and various small improvements to the documentation all over the place :)

Translation and internationalization

Given all the recent changes in the documentation, the translation statistics went a bit down. The German and French teams are working hard to keep up-to-date. The Portuguese team needs new translators to help :)
