Hi, since some time Qt allows for translations to be contributed to Qt 
upstream, so i'd like to suggest us stopping to translate Qt (kdeqt.po) 
locally and people contributing translations to the correct place (Qt proper).

Contributing Qt translations upstream will mean:
 * Qt but non KDE programs will also use your translations too, making your 
contribution more useful (good)
 * Translations will be synced with Qt releases instead with KDE releases as 
they should be (good)
 * You will use a different tools and format (linguist, .ts) (bad?)
 * You will have to give Nokia the right to license the translations under a 
non free license (bad?)

So i'd like to ask for comments about what you think if working on the 
technical solution to allow Qt translations to be used (isntead of kdeqt.po 
ones) is worth or even if there are some good sides to it you don't want the 
removal of kdeqt.po to happen.

Albert
