I'm very busy now trying to graduate etc... BTW, my only task is to 
translate news items... that is what i offered to do, not translating the
whole site... do i did things i March (as noted) to update things a bit...
Most notably, i did include that translation version stuff then...

(No offence taken btw...) No one was working on it when i joined the Dutch
team, there was not even a coordinator... that job i took on, and i will
help Mart now... this is all i have time for now... let's hope for better
days... (or prey depending on your religion ;)
