Nadim, I have a version number and some other info at the beginning of the doc 
but it seems Mr. Yousef's dog has eaten it. Please, all of you feed your dogs 
something better before you leave them behind ;) Seriously it's not my fault.

I can't understand who is translating KDE. Its status is much better than 
GNOME though no one is doing work on the HEAD, right?

Yes, I failed to do something regarding checking in these files to 
Arabeyes.org. There are some serious translation errors (e.g: default Display 
Number in rfbdrake is 0 where as in the translated app it's 10!!) and we need 
to collaborate. Mohammad Gamal, please take it seriously.

A word of thanks to all that don't work because they force us to learn things 
which we would never learn if they work. Please, keep up the good 'unwork' ;)
