[Thomas Pryds <820556@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for letting me translate Hugin into Danish. I think this very
interesting program deserves a translation into my language. Also, very nice
that I am able to commit changes directly through Mercurial. I haven't
worked with it before, but having worked with both CVS and SVN, it doesn't
seem very foreign to me. Also, thanks for correcting any mistake I might
make, formality or not. Actually, I realized -- only AFTER committing --
that you sorted the authors.txt file by surname, where I just put myself in
the bottom of the file. I will correct that with my next commit, if you
don't beat me to it.

I understand and agree completely that the translation should not be
included in its current state. It would only confuse more than do good. I
don't expect to see it shipped until it is close to finished. And I am
indeed very keen on completing it, as much as I am able to.

That said, I don't think I will be able to complete it in a few days. I
usually have an hour now and then, mostly in the evenings or weekends, so I
think you should go on releasing RC3 without the Danish translation. I guess
time will tell if it will be ready for RC4 (if there will be one), or if it
will wait for the next release cycle. Also, I am not aware how long a period
of time you normally put between RCs and between releases.

Title:
  Danish translation

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Here is the beginning of a Danish translation of Hugin. The file has
  around 19% strings translated, but I'd like to contribute more, until
  I have translated (nearly) all strings. I hope I have filled in
  especially the leading comment lines correctly. If not, please feel
  free to correct them.

  I read, though, that you prefer translations be contributed through
  the version controlling system, so I'd like to be able to contribute
  the rest that way. My SourceForge username is lauritsen.
