If you want a notification e-mail, then this mailing list is just what
you need. With appropriate mail client, you can filter out undesired
threads. The mailing list can be accessed in a "forum manner" through
the archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=9048

Speaking for myself, I prefer mailing lists :)

To me, it looks like a problem in the library format processing, but actually
I have no proof. To work around the problem, I choosed an intra-frame
only format, namely DV, but I'm not satisfied with it. I'm still
searching for some other intermediate format, or even better,
a fix of the root cause.

Grab the po/kdenlive.pot file (from svn), and copy it to a new file pt_BR.po
Write the translation of msgid in the msgstr line. See
http://l10n.kde.org/docs/translation-howto/gui-step-by-step.html
If you fix a fuzzy entry, you have to delete the fuzzy comment line.
While you can do this with a simple text editor, I recommand you to use
KBabel, which has many goodies like syntax verification, spell checker
and integrated dictionnary.

If you need any kind of help, seek advice from your KDE i18n team:
