Good :-)

Yeah, the patch seems to be ok... I am not at all familiar with all the 
translation stuff though, so someone knowledgeable on the subject may want to 
review the patch before committing.

BTW, there is KBabel in the kdesdk package which is created exactly for stuff 
like this. Although you can manually edit the .po files I seem to remember 
that this is not recommended. One reason is that the .po files are stored in 
utf8 (unicode) format and most text editors will screw that up when saving 
accented letters and other non-ascii characters. Luckily that's not too much 
of an issue in Dutch, but still...

Also, if you're more interested in KDE's translations and want to ask 
questions in Dutch to people who know how all that stuff works, you may want 
to consider subscribing to the Dutch translator's mailinglist. See 
http://www.kde.org/international/netherlands/nl/index.html for details and 
documentation.

Anyway, thanks for the patch! I'm sure one of the people who knows the 
translation stuff better than me will commit it for you (hint!) :-)

Martijn
