Glad to! Actually, it took me a bit longer than expected (about 45mins
for the whole thing), but thats nothing, really.

All right. Actually, it wasn't in the 0.3.2 distribution but I got it
from the svn.

What I did was to copy the shotwell.pot file to "de.po" and then edit
that. I hope that was the right way to do it -- I looked around a bit
but the docs only mentioned editing ".po" files. Anyway, the format
looks very much the same, so I guess it will be usefull anyhow.

Unfortunately, I couldn't really test it because the svn trunk requires
Vala 0.7.7 now and my Ubuntu Karmic only has 0.7.1.  Please let me know
whether everything is ok!

cheers,
