Re: [libreoffice-l10n] 4.3 translation

If I have to choose, keep old system where all dismissed errors are 
transfered to new branch.
Why?

4.2 branch l10n became active in november 2013. That is almost 6 months 
to date.
Whoever wanted to translate it 100% and clear all errors, already did 
that. It's less damage to have same error re-appear in finished 4.2 with 
which most translators will have minimum contact with, then in 4.3 where 
you need to mark them all as NON error all over again.

Please don't force us to do meaningless work.

Here you can see what are those errors. 4.1 was 100% error free before 
4.2 branch.

900 unchanged - we don't translate name, brands, and few english words 
like "Status" are spelled same in EN and HR
222 simple capitalization - Mostly Because Of Those New Found English 
Spelling Where You Capitalize Every First Letter In Sentence
136 acronyms - I think every ALL CAPITAL LETTER WORD is marked as 
acronym, like "OK" for example which we translate "U redu" and that's an 
error
101 punctuation spacing - this is trivial, if in EN you have "something 
(something)." and in HR it is "(something) something." it's an error
and so on...

Best regards,
Mihovil
