ok, one last time (because I tried to bring this up many times but no one
was interested):branches/stable is there and scripty is working on it. So simply put
ktorrent into branches/stable/extragear/network, add the network dir to
branches/stable/l10n/scripts/xxx (not sure which script, it's the one that
converts extragear/network to extragear-network or the other way around to
find the original strings, ask coolo or wait two days until I am home) and
copy your stable translations to the stable l10n branch (I created a brute
force script. If you are interested, let me know).
IMHO there is no sense in creating a stable tag for extragear packages as
they will never be packaged all together and it would mean that you had to
move around tags everytime you create a bugfix release. I don't want to
waste my time on that. With a stable branch which can also be translated
(you could even introduce new messages!) and the trunk maintaining the app
should be easy and comfortable.
Cheers,
Sebastian
