Really Sophie? So how do you feel with fact that we are translating Sidebar
second time? Michael Meeks committed Sidebar code to 4.1 branch at the last
moment and on mailing list he wrote: "I anticipate all manner of problems
with it." ( source:
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-qa-what-to-do-with-AOO-Sidebar-experimental-feature-in-libreoffice-4-1-master-and-the-4-h-td4057181.html).
This piece of functionality was hidden from users, so developers gave
us
extra job to do, though it was unneeded. Half year later they convert
Sidebar to Widget Layout and now we must do our work again. When we lost
common sense?

Perhaps no one did not it on purpose, but this style of developing software
is not correct, I think.

And en-US team need glossary, surely. I see many inconsistent phrases like
"*Please consider restart LibreOffice* to set new features".

Ps. LibreOffice is just another tool. The better way is work for some
people, not for things.
