You're right Albert.

My thinking was that it influences also translations and I found it during
translations.

Also, we report typos and other errors here, too.

&gt; &gt; Hello.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I see that there has been a change Directory -&gt; Folder in Crusader.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I believe this goes against rules we have active.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; General approach is:<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Directory - when real directories are meant (command is ran in<br>
&gt; &gt; directory<br>
&gt; &gt; ...) - typically used for low level tools and file managers.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Folder - meant for VFS - You can have loadsof virtual folders which do<br>
&gt; &gt; not<br>
&gt; &gt; have to be equivalent to real directory - mail folders, various<br>
&gt; &gt; usability<br>
&gt; &gt; folders ...<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Therefore I believe that this change goes against this rule and<br>
&gt; &gt; Krusader as<br>
&gt; &gt; file manager should use Directory, instead of Folder.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; What do you guys think?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I did this change because I thought, &quot;directories&quot; were for \
directoy<br> &gt; services like LDAP stuff and &quot;folders&quot; were for usual \
operating system<br> &gt; stuff. Dolphin uses &quot;folders&quot; at least, \
that&#39;s why I changed Krusader.<br> &gt;<br>
&gt; Do we have rules written down for this somewhere?<br>
<br>
Isn&#39;t this discussion on the wrong list? I mean this is about the english<br>
wording, not about the translation itself, shouldn&#39;t it be in kde-devel or<br>
kde-usability or somewhere else?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
   Albert<br>
