Hello Sophie, *,

the big workload of my 1st round of changes have just landed in Pootle
and I see the issues they caused.

Some of the the "improvements" I made turned out to not be
needed/helpful at al,
others introduces new inconsistencies.
And there are some new mistakes not neccessarily caused by me, but now
they are there.

My plan was to go through file for file in a more or less numerical order.

It seems to turn out not to be the best solution for the project.

If o.k., I could take the file(s) I just see a mistake in in Pootle.
Would that helps?

I am not quite sure, what you mean. Can you explain it more, please?

Ah I see. So I do not longer bother. It is beyond my skills anyway for now.

I wouldn't mind to improve my workflow in that way.
But I don't know how to achieve that, but open for discussions and
hopefully working solutions in that manner.
