well, you have to commit your desktop.po and wait a night. After that
the
CVS will be updated :)

All the code is in kde-i18n's target "desktops".
So you need to do a "make -f Makefile.am desktops". kde-i18n also has a
"make -f Makefile.am apply" which creates a little tool that when used
as "./apply <file> eo" will look for 
$KDEDIR/share/locale/eo/LC_MESSAGES/desktop.mo and create a <file>.new
with added Name[eo]. As long as you don't commit them, that's ok :)

Oops, my fault. These come from the XML-descriptions of the UI. We need
a tool to extract them. I forgot that til now. Forgive me :)

Hmm, maybe a bug. manual editing doesn't help? Then this is even more
broken,
but I'm not too sure if anyone using anything else than ISO-1 has used
that so
far :)
Please tell me what the problem is and I look into it.

Greetings, Stephan
