soz, missed that...
For me, I always have to answere myself the question whether to
translate strings of this kind of resources: mostly so technical that
the ones in The Netherlands who use this kind of stuff probably read
fluently (technical) english, and are most likely using a english
based system anyhow.
Looking to the amount of strings and words (6,812 strings, 42,535
words) I wonder, "Is it worth the effort?"
Well if you think your time is better spent on something else
nobody will complain. On the other hand some do care, libvirt
is now in use in a lot of infrastructure, and for some english is
not really an option (I'm french and always use english for locale
so I understand your POV, but I also live in China and know some
really want localized strings when possible, this is very context
sensitive !)
