Bedankt, Tom! It is wonderful to have another language at 100%. I don't usually review translations much, as I don't want to seem to know any better :-) (although I have at times fixed some critical errors like broken XML tags). But since I actually do understand Dutch a bit and you ask for review, I'll give some short comments. Perhaps they are useful to other translators as well I see at the message for "Documentation & help", that you didn't follow the suggested terminology of "hulp" but rather "help". I can't judge if this is intended or not. http://pootle.wordforge.org/nl/pootle/pootle.po?translate=1&item=123 It seems that you used the checks to review your translations, so only a few more are reported, probably the few remaining false positives. The brackets test did however point out one issue: The last item didn't make use of the square brackets as the source string, and I assume that this is ok to use in Dutch too? http://pootle.wordforge.org/nl/pootle/pootle.po?translate=1&item=284 I see you translated "Free Software" with "gratis software" but the terminology suggested "vrije software" which I am quite sure is the correct translation. This message is displayed on the about page, and we definitely intend the meaning as "free as in freedom". Perhaps we should add a comment for the next release of the translatable files. http://pootle.wordforge.org/nl/pootle/pootle.po?translate=1&item=218 In the following message, I see there is no comma before "enzovoorts" - is this customary in Dutch? I see the English has the same mistake :-) http://pootle.wordforge.org/nl/pootle/pootle.po?translate=1&item=219 There are some terminology choices that surprise me, but I don't even think I should comment about them as I'm not a native speaker :-) Thanks again to all translators of our software!
