Now most of KDE apps have been updated. I still have several Transifex resources to update, plus the erroneous PO files. I may write a script for our web server that would inform which PO files couldn't be updated automatically. If people start now to translate these files on Transifex, they may work on translations that are already available but not uploadable…
