The latest tech newsletter is ready for early translation: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/2016/46
Direct translation link: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=pag...
I'm planning to send the newsletter on Monday afternoon (UTC), i.e. Monday morning PDT. The existing translations will be posted on the wikis in that language.
There may be a few more edits by Friday, but the existing content should generally remain fairly stable. I will let you know on Friday in any case.
Let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. As always, I appreciate your help and feedback.

The text of the newsletter is now final. One new item has been added. There won't be any more changes; you can translate safely.
Thank you, and have a good weekend!

I don't know if I understand this correctly: from the next MediaWiki distribution you can create a reference in visual editor using the "Windows key": do you mean the key that has the Windows symbol on it? I think this is wrong, maybe it would be the Ctrl or the Alt key.

I agree, it’s quite weird to use the OS key in a non-system interface, especially a web one (I thought it was actually impossible). Usually Apple’s cmd is used as an equivalent of Ctrl under standard PCs. ‘Meta’ is a generic name, the right name for the OS key should be ‘Super’. -- Sylvain
I apoogize for this confusion, and thank you for catching this problem. It's the control key (ctrl-shift-k) on Windows and the command key (propeller-shift-k ;-) on Macs. And apparently "meta-shift-k" on a Solaris box. I have made the correction to the original but NOT invalidated the existing translations.
