OK, thanks! I'll keep that in mind.

I saw that i18n is quite difficult with scons. There are not that much howto's 
in the
net. I don't know wheter it is possible to i18n a scons-project or not.
What about moving from scons to cmake, like the whole KDE-project did?

I am quite busy with school at the moment so I can't try/do that much. Would 
you like
to see dvbcut being moved to cmake? How much do you know about cmake (or: how 
much do
I have to do)?
