Not having versions in there that are of no use anymore.
As far as I see it there are two ways of handling it:
- keep ALL versions
- keep only versions that still are of any interest

I am more a supporter of the latter but wanted to know if there is
some different policy in KDE or kdegames or if it just is not common
to do it.

Ok. I thought that only fixes that change the meaning of the string
need to be asked for. However, I will ask before backporting.

Ok.

Thanks all of you for your answers.
