I just rejoined email from being at an event for the last four days, and sent some email to both Docs and L10n lists to go over the schedule and detail what needs to be done. One point that we should make is that the Beta release notes translation is a "soft" deadline. There may be some changes between Beta and GA in the release notes content. I've reminded Docs contributors that we should try to minimize those changes wherever possible. If translators do not finish their work by the Beta deadline, they are still able to continue working through the GA deadline on that content, which is about a month or so later. We will try to keep POT regenerated quickly during that time so that changes are seen as early as possible. Are those details helpful? -- Paul W.
