I would like to release a new version of Turtle Art, but I had to make<br>
some string changes of late, hence this request.<br>
<br>
I added a new toolbar and tool tips.<br>
<br>
There are a number of other strings that I submitted before string<br>
freeze, but as far as I know, they have not been translated either.<br>
<br>
I did make sure that the es.po file is complete in any case.<br>

</blockquote><div><br>I have been pestering various teams (as nicely as possible) to complete their strings and I have been gratified by the level of response by so many language teams. That said, I would speak in favor of granting Walter's request for the break in string freeze for TurtleArt. It is not his "elder statesman" status in the community that prompts me to argue in his favor, but rather Walter's status as a new and vigorous activity maintainer that has worked very hard to be responsive to feedback from deployments in adding features to the activity. On that basis, I am in favor of breaking the string freeze to incorporate the new TA strings to bring those improvements to as many users as possible.<br>
