Basic rules for check-in

These are some (minimum) rules for us to be able to work together in the same place. Be careful when you touch build.xml. Please send diffs to the team alias to get confirmation from RE. Sometime invalid changes of build.xml will break the nightly build.
  • Use release60 branch
    Use release60 branch for 6.0 translation. Near the English FCS, release60 branch will be created. Once it gets created, we will move to the branch.
  • Do not touch other language files
    Please maintain your own translation files and do not touch other localized files.
