*hmpf* I think this would be a good april fool's joke:
I receive the freeze announcement on saturday and tagging is on monday? Ok, 
this is not the first time with such a short freeze.
But then you tell us to cut off translations below a threshold???

Please tell me it's a joke!

Sorry, I'm a bit harsh, please forgive me. But it's always the same with 
amarok string freeze, it's really too short.
