What needs still be done for a release?

We had some last minute string changes so it would be nice if you could head over to transifex and have a look at you language. If there are still some strings untranslated use the fabolous online editor to translate it.

If there are no roadblocks we will release a 2.4.0.final next week.

Many many thanks to all the contributers that made this release a reality, espacilly Bjorn Sandberg for the simple publisher changes that was a huge chunk of work.
