I have already translated hundreds and hundreds of such string and I don't: -- want to trash my work -- The reading is very interesting (and sometimes only reasonable explanation, what plug-in does), that there is good reason to have it translated. I have one idea: make another po (or other) file and move traslations there. But it requires extra code for switching between two catalogs. Translators will first translate gimp-std-plugins and then, when they have enough effort, can translate gimp-pdb. -- Stanislav Brabec
