Hey ho,

first of all have a great new year guys :-)

I just checked out the current beta5 and noticed again that there have been several changes to the naming of several variables in die language file without any observable matter.

I'm really tired of checking and comparing the howle file to my current translation every time...

How about a system that would automatically show current changes (new variables, disused variables, maybe changed meaning in the english version).

I've already seen a system like this in another open source project but I actually don't remember this... unfortunately.

How about you, what do you think?


Regards,

Julian

Excellent idea! The only technical difficulty I see is that the data (translated pharses) is stored in files (not in DB) making editing in a WEB browser quite difficult.

Perhaps we should move the data into the database? Can be quite difficult because of various local encodings...
