(as seen in several original strings)
+We do update the messages.pot daily (nightly) and merge the strings into
+all the .po files (using msgmerge). That means if we change one of the
+english strings the translation will normally be marked as "fuzzy" in the
+.po file.
+
+In poedit those fuzzy translations are shown in red, telling you that those
+have had a change in the original string and the translation should be
+checked.
+
+So before any of you start out with editing a translation, please fetch the
+latest messages.pot and NN.po
