Hello all!
I think it's time to sort out some files, that did not really get any love for ages. We have files with last template update in 2006 or 2007, are corresponding apps really THAT stable or just are not used any more? I guess some files definitely need comments (after which some decision may follow): kinternet.po (2006-06-08) - since openSUSE does not provide KDE3 by default it does not make any sense to keep it in trunc kfiledialog.po (2006-09-14) - guess it's part of KDE3 too. Any info anyone? krpmview.po (2007-07-20) - same as above. limal*.po (2007-01-14) - is it really used anywhere? apparmorapplet.po (2007-02-16) - it seems all apparmor utils got a lot of rewriting since then and this thing is not really used?
So what do you people think about it? Maybe we should consider deleting such outdated stuff from trunc?

I'm all for it. To be sure you can try to reach the maintainers listed in the 50-pot/MAINTAINERS file. Lately Lubos tried to cleanup the k* files--thanks for this, but it would not hurt to check again.
limal*.po (2007-01-14) - is it really used anywhere?
Not sure, but probably still in use somewhere.
apparmorapplet.po (2007-02-16) - it seems all apparmor utils got a lot of rewriting since then and this thing is not really used?
AppArmor related issues are often hard to sort out.
So what do you people think about it? Maybe we should consider deleting such outdated stuff from trunc?
Thanks for attacting it!

Actually KInternet is still in 11.2 and Factory (I think it has something to do with NetworkManager not supporting some rare kind of connection well, I don't remember exactly). And KRPMView has been ported to KDE4, it's just that the user visible strings haven't changed in a long time. Only kfiledialog.po is an obsolete file that I have missed, I'll remove it now.
I pinged some mentioned maintainers. However, I ran into some minor glitches. 1) There is no maintainer mentioned for opensuseupdater-gnome.pot (last change 2 years ago) 2) Actual creation date for kio_sysinfo.pot differs a lot from the date mentioned inside the file. Real creation was on 2009-08-16 while 2007-08-01 is stated inside. I bet Lubos can fix this =)
