Description

Following on from MDL-11158 and MDL-9890, a generic bug for all languages. Note, this is not directly linked to a specific Moodle release, so I deliberately make it not block 1.9! TODO: link, add Koen.


From MDL-11158,

I know Nick - I had that problem already a few times. (eg the BOM bug and previous attempts for XHTML strict a couple of years ago). It happens that translators start of from very outdated English language packs.
The problem is that translators are not always developers and not always connected to the Moodle heartbeat. Most of them are not even subscribed to the languages forum.
I think the only thing that can be done is contact the people who caused the damage personally (and redo it ).
