I *just* found some strings in KDevelop weren't translatable. Missing 
i18n(), or not being extracted into a .po. I just committed a fix for this.

We are in string freeze, but technically I didn't add any new string. All 
strings were already there, I only made them translatable. The problem is 
that KDevelop 4.1 final will be released in *only one week*. I know many 
teams may be unable to translate these "new" strings in time.

However, I'd appreciate your best efforts to update the translations
New files are kdevcodeutils.po, kdevopenwith.po, kdevpastebin.po, and 
kdevreviewboard.po (with few strings each), and kdevplatform.po got three 
new strings.


Details for the interested:

Four plugin directories in kdevplatform (codeutils, openwith, pastebin, 
reviewboard) were missing the Messages.sh script, so their strings weren't 
getting extracted at all and didn't appear in .po files. The plugins are 
minor and have few strings, but it's still a problem. Notably, the plugin 
list showed translated descriptions for all plugins except these.

I also found the "Open Project" dialog was missing i18n() calls in three 
existing strings.

I have fixed these problems in the 1.1 branch of kdevplatform, adding the 
missing Messages.sh scripts (I hope they are correct!) and the i18n() calls. 
Adding new strings during string freeze is usually not allowed, but making 
existing strings translatable is fine, according to techbase (and common 
sense, if you think about it).

Sorry for the trouble.
