The Glossary list of Weblate can be a great tool: Adding terms to the glossary 
helps making consistent translations, both among translators and for a given 
translator (such as myself) over time.

However, the glossary seems to be only effective for the master version. For 
both LibreOffice UI and LibreOffice Help: If I look up a string in a non-master 
version, e.g. in version 24.8, then the window "Glossary" is seen on the 
screen, but not glossaries are shown, even if it string contains terms that had 
glossary defined as master. There is not even a button to add terms.

UI strings and Help strings are inherited across versions: If a string is 
translated in any version, it is automatically also applied to other versions 
(earlier or later) that use the same specific string.

So is there a reason why only master can see the glossary for master? And is 
there a reason why it does not seem to be possible to add glossary in earlier 
versions than master? If this on purpose as a useful feature (rather than being 
a bug) of Weblate, please educate me on its why and how!

Of course, for those languages who have everything translated already at 
"master" state, it is not a problem - all translation will take place in the 
master version. But not all translation projects are at that state. If versions 
in use (currently, 24.2 and 24.8) are not yet fully translated, it will make 
sense to prioritize strings from these versions over those strings only present 
in the upcoming versions (master).

Lars
