I think the problem is that the developers of quanta do not yet know how to 
setup quanta in such a way that it occasionally produces a pot-file in 
others. I don't know how to do it either. 

I guess the general policy of others ought to be that the projects outside 
the basic packages put pot-files in others, and when they notice things have 
been translated put them in their po-directories. If not I don't quite know 
what the purpose of others is. I guess it does no harm if the compiled 
po-files from others get distributed as well. That way users installing some 
package will discover, maybe to their surprise, that the package is 
translated on their system. Anyway, I am not completely sure what the policy 
is. 

Before I had realized that quanta was in others, I had looked at Kiefers 
instructions somewhere and produced a pot-file for quanta that somebody then 
translated, but according to Kiefers instructions such things should happen 
automatically when  a project is in kde cvs.
