Albert and Pino are probably not necessary for doing the release. You
suggested to create the 4.6 branch, but I think you can grab the
translations from 'trunk' translations (without waiting for Albert to
create a branch for kdepim-4.6 translations).

Actually, the top 18 translation teams have KDE PIM mostly translated
(some of them don't have translations of "-mobile" apps). See
http://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/trunk-kde4/toplist/ for details.

As for Russian, there are huge gaps, but I think, it's almost
releasable. If you're using only KMail, KAddressBook and KOrganizer,
you'll see very little number of untranslated messages. Though, when
people see 4000 untranslatable strings in the statistics table and
less than a week left for translation until a _sudden_ release, they
say "OMG/fierce/that's in the spirit of KDE4".
(yeah, my desire to seing a new release of KDE PIM overbeared the
addiction to localized applications ;))

What languages will be included in the release: those that are
packaged with recent KDE SCs or those that fulfill minimum translated
percentage requirement?

A month _after_ you announce the future release is more than enough.
