At least they should have a reasonable chance to do so. Those who can't make 
it should get a second chance in an x.x.1 release.

It usually comes as a surprise to computer fans, but English is still a 
minority language in the world although an extremely important one. An 
English-only KDE is useless to _lots_ of our most loyal users. And even most 
of the people who understand English seem to vastly prefer a localized 
desktop (at least that's the experience here in Germany).
