[Localization] [Announce] New Update 1 Project, and String Freeze

[Y.Sonoda]

Hi! Sayamindu,

Thank you for the following info.

I have one question.

According to the following schedule, it seems
newly created "Update 1" was already closed for translation work
on Dec. 8, is that right?

If that is so, should we stop translation work on Update 1,
or is it still effective for, maybe, Update 2, in near future?
(That means, addtional translations on Update 1will be
manually or automatically moved to Update 2
or something like that.)

Best regards,
Spiky
