Ah, I thought Rosetta wasn't reachable, but it turns out that it's just  
Safari that has issues with it (can anyone confirm/deny this?). I can  
reach it with FireFox.
Well, that changes things of course, no point in starting a new  
translation when there is one.

To the Dutch translators: are you reading this? Can I just join in and  
start translating away or are there certain areas you'd like to see  
done first?

That's a Windows app, that won't work on my Mac =]
I'll look around, but I don't mind using command line tools so I think  
I'll just use the standard tools.
