I'm fine with that. While setting an end date might be good, I wouldn't 
be too strict about it, as long as it stays within certain limits. How 
long does it usually take you to finish the translations? 3 days or one 
week? I'm sure it depends on the size of the task. Just give me a rough 
number please (or two, one for small tasks, one for big).

So next time, I'll announce string freeze on the i18n mailing list.
