Feel free to use it as a source when translating, but we are not going to
add special hacks for 2*(12+7)=38 words. Don't forget that that KDE
supports 46 different languages (maybe coolo is more updated here. I just
did wc -l kde-i18n/subdirs and added one). Some of them do no have a
locale in the regular Unix system.

And don't forget that there are used in a different context.

BTW: I just removed the code which used the short date format.. THe code
was in a '#if 0'.. Thx :-)
