Now it's in Rosetta, but not in the lang packs.

The KDE translation teams provide translations for all apps in KDE's svn. So 
there are also translations for kdebluetooth. I mailed them to your 
translation team so they could import them into Rosetta. It's definitv not my 
job, but I thought it would be nice for the Ubuntu users. If I mail a new 
translation to my team leader, he needs between 6 and 24 hours to upload the 
files to our svn. Your team needs with the quick, easy and userfriendly  
Rosetta about one month. Congratualations. It's just great.

It's almost imposssible for me to find it, although I know that it exists. 
Very userfriendly. You probably have to search yourself, if you are 
interested in this issue ...

Exactly that is your problem.

I'm look forward to see more advertisement for other closed source products in 
our software. Great.

Good night, Jannick
