Dear Hjorth, Thank you for your suggestion. What a coincidence. Today I thought of importing my translations into Launchpad, since uploading them to Gnome-nl is probably not enough. As soon as I have found out what is the right way of getting a translation published I will let you know through this mailing list. Hannie
