Review process of releases and updating strings (pot) and translations (po) files c.f. ​http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/ckan-dev/2011-May/000718.html

​http://wiki.ckan.net/Release_process updated with basic process

Get language changing thing to get home page to mostly work - push to key strings translated (or don't advertise the translation?)

Welcome message is translated in all languages. Most language have upped their percentage translated significantly and Swedish and Polish added as well.

Review long list of strings for improvement Consolidate any? Get rid of i18n for strings in api

About 50% of the strings are templates, 30% are in the logic layer and 20% are in the controllers. Removed a handful from ckan/lib/base.py that were only displayed in the api, but the logic layer ones are generally errors that can be displayed in the Web UI as well as the API, so not ideal to remove.

Try and remove javascript
