| (!) For the reshuffled Dapper schedule, the Documentation String Freeze occurs before the String and UI Freezes. For this reason, some minor changes may be required to the documentation to update any late string or graphics changes. Any such changes must be communicated to the ubuntu-doc and ubuntu-translators mailing lists. | A string change must be discussed (and approved) on the mailing list (see [[DocumentationTeam/Contact]]). If a string is changed after the freeze, it must be communicated to the translators (by writing to the ubuntu-translators mailing list) with enough time to update the translations before the translation freeze. After release, any fixes must comply with the StableReleaseUpdates procedure (and are therefore acceptable in extremely limited circumstances, as prescribed by that page), and where necessary must be accompanied by translations before uploading. |

Exceptions may be made before release, on the following grounds:
- Major glaring typos
- Exceptional circumstances
