This was about what I meant when I said "we should not level out our cultural 
differences" (eg http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-i18n-doc&m=101981377001422&w=2)

OTOH, I think we _could_ agree on some basic style requirements and a 
consistent terminology (eg in the infamous folder <-> directory thing) and 
apply this to existing and upcoming KDE texts. Unfortunately, this is always 
only "considered" but nobody of the native speakers seems to be prepared to 
actually pick it up and _do_ it so far.

Regards,

Thomas
