Re: A new release? -> Translations!

[Andreas Lochmann]

Hi,

unfortunately, 20 minutes after I updated the enigma.pot to transifex, 
transifex decided to auto-update it again---from the wrong file, of 
course, returning it to the old state. So, I think I fixed this now.

If you logged in to transifex yesterday and wondered ... sorry, you 
should now see the new strings for translation.

Regards,
Andreas
