Translators often dont translate verbatim and they shouldnt be. They usually use the most appropriate wording. That said ,even if the menu ends up longer for a translation, this is not a permanent menu item and is displayed only when a restart is required. Which is better than having an ambiguous menu item which user would not easily understand. [If the user notices the start icon turning red , there is no indication why.] A red Restart required can be mistaken even for system burning up and hence requiring a restart too. ;) -- Cheers, Vish _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
