6. Some challenges...
   ● How to track...
   ○ Strings of all participating packages have been pushed/pulled to/from Zanata on time?
   ○ Latest strings are being packaged and build in koji?
   ● What is the volume of translation required for next fedora release?
   ● Can we fix major translation bugs reported after translation deadline, before final
   freeze? To ensure targeted language shall ship.
   ● Which set of languages need attention? And who should handle/fix?
   ● Is there any way to automate some of these steps?

8. An attempt towards solution...
   ● How to track...
   ○ Strings of packages have been duly
   pushed/pulled to/from Zanata?
   ○ Latest strings are being packaged and
   build in koji?
   ● What is the volume of translation
   required for next fedora release?
   ● Can we fix major translation bugs
   reported after translation deadline,
   before final freeze?
   ● Which set of languages need attention?
   ● Is there any way to automate few steps?
   ● By comparing translation statistics derived
   from different places: upstream repository,
   translation platform and build system.
   ● Transtats release summary can tell us
   volume of translation required per languages
   (summing up statistics of all packages).
   ● YAML based job can parse packaged SRPM
   to check criticality of translation bugs.
   ● Transtats can answer - which packages are
   out of sync (has diff) and in which languages?
   ● By adding a few more tasks to YAML,
   automation can be achieved.
