I wasn't aware there's already an agreement. But if so it's that no 
country-specific stuff is needed in German.

Still I don't get why there should be a need of 
networkmonitor_de*_DE*.desktop as you wrote in the PR. This meant you 
want either both networkmonitor_de.desktop and 
networkmonitor_de_DE.desktop supported or the latter only. Neither makes 
sense to me

Are there any technical reasons or something else I miss?

Otherweise let me mention once more, that everything works well if 
networkmonitor_de_DE.desktop as well as networkmonitor_de_DE.ts, which 
isn't maintained on Pootle anyway, are simply dropped from the source code.

Once we agree on how to treat this I'll submit any PR needed quickly.

In the meantime I did realize that my assumption country-specific 
translations may not be needed at all was wrong.
