I can't tell myself, but surely a clear translation process providing
all
instructions needed would help.
(not forgetting that translators are just translators and may be very
ignorant besides !).

Maybe what we're looking for is here :
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/kdeqt/kde3arch/kde-i18n-howt…
especially chapter 3 about Makefile.am.
As far as I understand (I just checked quickly) It seems that "make
messages" should be run periodically on the source tree by its
administrator
to update the pot files, followed by some command to merge the new pot
files
with the existing corresponding po files for each language (at present
time,
the po files seem to exist only in kde-i18n directory as tarballs :
maybe if
they existed as untared in svn, it would be more easy to do the merging
and
then for the translators to update them.

As long as there is no centralized process to update the po files, I'm
trying to do it myself, but I don't know enough of the development tools
to
achieve it. Maybe someone might help me :
I'd like to run "make messages" in kdebase/kicker source directory, but
there is no Makefile in it, only Makefile.am. How can I generate
Makefile
from it, what command should I run ?
Thanks,
