Hi Johnny,
I'll follow your first suggestion and prepare them all together, instead of
sending two batches. That means the four core modules, plus the three game
files I sent to kde-i18n-sr earlier that nobody picked up. I'll send
everything to Albert when they are ready.
I'll open the sysadmin ticket for SVN after he has reviewed them, as you
suggested.
I also believe 26.08 shipped on the 20th (with tarbals created earlier) and
ksirk missed it. I am not sure yet whether we can make the next one, but I
hope the files will be ready in time for 26.08.1 in September.
Thanks for the pointers.
Best regards,
Nemanja
