	Hahaha. Well, I think it's cool that you've written so many extensions.
Most people haven't written any. And I wrote the new Extensions system
for 3.6, so I like it when people write extensions (although more when
people write using the new system, of course :-) ).

	Yeah, I completely understand. :-) I know a lot of people in similar
situations--I've done a lot of upgrades of customized installations for
clients, bringing forward all the customizations and so forth.

	Yes, Bugzilla 3.6 Extensions are fully localizable, and if you find
that they're not, then it's a bug and we'll fix it.

	We're hoping to have Bugzilla 4.0 in November, but that's a really
vague estimate right now. I can't make any promises or guarantees.
