Re: Pingus release 0.6.1 planned - your help is requested to make it better

[Tudor]

Hey David,

I started editing the English version (I am a native speaker) but then I 
realised that English is used as the indexing language which means I 
can't change the English text without changing all the other languages 
as well.

Why did you choose english (which is prone to errors for non-native 
speakers) as the indexing language over your own language which 
obviously would have few errors?

I can continue leaving the indexes as they are but fixing the 
translation if you like, but it seems a little silly, not to mention 
confusing.

Cheers,
Tudor.
