I have no idea how the i18n packages are currently handled... We have one 
package for every language? And this package covers 
kdelibs.kdebase,koffice,etc,etc? (E.g. for 40 languages, we have 40 packages?)

So if we release kdelibs & kdebase 2.1 we can either:
a) release kdebase-i18n-<lang> and kdelibs-i18n-<lang> (e.g. 80 packages)
or
b) release kde-i18n-<lang> based on kdelibs 2.1, kdebase 2.1, koffice 2.0, 
kdeutils 2.0, etc, etc.?

Given that we have about 40 (30? 50?) languages and 12 packages, a) would 
lead to about 480 packages.

That's a lot of packages but it wouldn't matter much for the overall size 
would it? In the long run I think that would be more managable.

Please correct me if I make wrong assumptions.

Cheers,
Waldo
