 If it is true that Gnome team doesn't work much on sawfish, then we

Well the issue that currently sawfish doesn't like (_ string) anywhere
else than in list/alist widgets, therefore I can't mark the strings to
translate and the gnome translation team doesn't know about them, more:
the gnome-i18n-team uses intltool to create pot/po files, all strings
not marked (_ ) aren't recognised, so they end up as #~ in the .po files
after the gnome-i18n-team have updated a po file (latest one is de), so
they won't be included in the final .mo file. That's why I run 

./update.sh de 

and such, to keep the old strings in, since they are in most cases
valid. I'm posting a copy of this mail to the gnome-i18n mailing-list,
to let the peeps from there know the issue. And I want to kill it before
1.6.0.

Maybe I'm missing something, but isn't the proper fix to make Sawfish
use intltool properly, and/or if necessary extend intltool to support
whatever special tricks Sawfish is using?

Hi!

Just wanted to let you know that I just created the new stable branch
(gnome-2-28) for eog.

Development will continue in master now, which has already been advanced
by making eog finally able to display GIF animations.
