Then, kdebase and kdelibs. They can easily be finished in one day.

My point is I can't give the translators any file at random since they would 
face a problem in some linux-specific stuff. This is why it's easier for them 
to be given easy windows-like files which happened to be from different 
modules like: kdepim/kmail, /kdenetwork/kopete.po, ...

Another point is I need to give them rather large files which also happened to 
be from various modules. This is because the time I need to assign short 
files to them and running via the hassle of committing for each one is much 
longer than the time I need to translate them myself.

Now I am not going to commit any thing until saturday, on Saturday, I am 
intending to finish all the files from different modules that happen to 
contain a few remaining untranslated words. I will try to get a deeper 
examination on the other files so from sunday I can give you more accurate 
report about how I am going to proceed. At least, I will try to tell you 
about what files we are going to translated two days ahead.

May I change this? let it be from 4:30 - 12:00 UTC, please.
