That would be very much helpful. Especially since the module location and branch names tend to get a bit confusing in the syntax if one is using the Gnome SVN for the first time. thanks Runa > ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

gnome-icon-them shows >100% statistics
Hi, Statistics for gnome-icon-theme shows >100% for quite a few languages along with negative figures for Untranslated string counts. http://l10n.gnome.org/module/gnome-icon-theme Is this some kind of an error in the translations or does it need to be modified by the maintainers? thanks a lot regards Runa ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

gnome-nettool po/LINGUAS file?
Hi, The LINGUAS file for gnome-nettool seems to be missing from the /po directory. The Changelog file in the root mentions the following: == 2006-08-08 Brian Pepple <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * po/LINGUAS: New file listing all supported languages. * configure.in: Use po/LINGUAS instead of including all languages directly in this file. See the wiki for more information: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/PoLinguas === The ALL_LINGUAS entry is also missing from configure.in. Can someone please clarify this issue?
