It looks weird to reject translations for untranslated strings... but that's your
project anyway (I worked on this translation because I saw untranslated strings while
creating my account). I would suggest not to i18n-ize them if you don't expect a
translation.

But apart from that, all your corrections seems good to me (removal of useless "-",
uncapitalization of some letters not at the beginning of phrases, etc...)

Hello,
I cannot apply the patch as it is right now. Many changes are interesting an
appreciated. However some of them are questionable.
For instance, we are not prepared to rename "item" to "élément". I think item is a
latin word and considering its importance in Savane, it is best to keep a word more or
less universal. By the way, I think item is perfectly accepted in academic French.
More generally, when what could appear as a mistake seems to be repeated over and
over, it is best to send a mail to savane-dev first to get some input.
There are also some minor things that cannot really be translated (almost internal
stuff, stuff only shown to admin that take a very very specific sense, impossible to
translated without strong knowledge of the context, like "CVS Attic"). In the case of
the french translation, you can consider that almost 98% of untranslated strings are
in this state because no acceptable translation could be produce.
In other words, I would be glad if it was possible for you to resubmit your patch
minus the s/item/élément, minus the addition of strings that were not already
translated. It would take me too much time right now to discriminate string per string
which one is okey and which one is not.
But apart from that, all your corrections seems good to me (removal of useless "-",
uncapitalization of some letters not at the beginning of phrases, etc...)
