Requirements		* Installation of updated translations via standalone packages Decoupling of release process and translations Ability of deployments to update their translations on their own Ability for users to update their own translations without root access either from OLPC's Pootle based setup Local modifications
Specification		~~Packs should be as RPMs~~ While a standard package format helps, we may not be able to meet the 9.1 target if we try to have non root installable RPMs for this release. I suggest that we stick to zip files, at least for 9.1 --Sayamindu 18:44, 28 December 2008 (UTC) Utilize patches from Ubuntu for Python and Glibc to define a separate install location/search path for PO files installed via the packs A method to deploy the language packs via The Control Panel The customization key mechanism
