Just FYI, we are currently generating langpacks for Sugar 0.94

http://translate.sugarlabs.org/langpacks/

A directory for master (0.95) exists, but as dev builds pick up new
L10n, langpacks are not typically needed to back-fill L10n and so are
not being generated nightly.  This will be incremented when 0.96
branches.
