Last week I reviewed the Honey activities using "git status" on the
Pootle server to identify activities with lots of pending PO file
commits and did a general push of the pending changes.  You may find a
Pootle commit from that period commented as "Push many files from
Pootle" that served to land any long-pending L10n work.

Although I have tried to be diligent about preventing printf errors
from being committed (and causing build problems) by flagging them as
"fuzzy", there is a formal possibility that PO files can raise issues
during builds.  I'll be happy to work with any developer encountering
such a L10n related issue with their activities to find an optimal
solution.
