Hi folks,

I'm new here at this list. So I want shortly introduce myself.

My development experience reaches back more than 20 years, for more than 15
years I'm self-employed professional developer, so called freelancer.

For 3 years now I'm fulltime working as software integration engineer,
currently as Open System Driver Integrator for Cell(tm) based server blades
at IBM development labs in Boeblingen, Germany. Looking at 34 open patches
at Spambayes Sourceforge project page eventually there is a need for
integration skills.

I'm consequently using Windows on my desktop and Debian stable on my
servers. After upgrading my hardware and system software last month, I had
to deal with SpamBayes again after it ran on my old system for years without
problems.

Because I don't like mixed-language GUIs I wanted to translate the main GUI
items into German. I discovered
- in README-DEVEL.txt there are missing some important information.
- Localization does not work at all (at least if running from source)
- After fixing these two points there are other localization related
problems.

I've provided three patches on Sourceforge to fix these problems. On my
system SpamBayes seems to run stable now under Vista x64 with Outlook 2007
with Spambayes and a partly translated German interface.

I would be happy if someone could review the fixes and integrate them. Of
course I think I could do it myself if I had the appropriate rights. (My
sf.net user name is 'igs'.)

Marko
