Task 19 Update (Te Reo Māori Translations):
- Infrastructure 50% complete (i18next framework, language selector, translation files)
- Professional translations postponed indefinitely
- Will be reviewed in December 2025 monthly review session
Postponement Rationale:
- Professional translation services require significant time and budget
- Te Reo Māori cultural consultation for AI safety terminology is non-trivial
- German/French machine translations also need professional review
- Infrastructure complete - minimal technical risk from postponement
- Other roadmap priorities take precedence for research outreach timeline
Impact:
- Phase 3 Task 19 remains at 50% complete (no change)
- Overall progress: 49% complete (unchanged)
- No blocking dependencies for other tasks
- Research outreach can proceed with English + machine-translated DE/FR
Documentation:
- Added status update section with postponement details
- Strikethrough applied to deferred next steps with December 2025 target
- Completed work (50%) clearly documented
- Impact assessment included
