Hi,

I would like to backport some documentations from trunk to stable.

1. New docs I found so far
ksig (75 messages), kompare (280 messages)
Ok to backport?

2. Docs with bug fixes, changed and sometimes additional content and also ebn 
fixes like eg kbackgammon, kshisen, kpdf, kpercentage, ktouch, kturtle, juk, 
kaudiocreator, kmix, kscd. I suppose there will be some more docs in the other 
kde modules.
There should be no objections to backport this stuff.

3. Docs only with ebn, typo and markup fixes, in addons, admin, edu, games, 
graphics, multimedia all together 32 doc with about 100 fuzzies. There are 
more docs with these changes in the other modules.
I will not backport these docs, except you give me your explicit Ok to do so.

For all backports I can provide a plain text file with message number, 
msgid-previous and msgid-new for the fuzzy messages like the attached example 
for kmix.
