Bug
Major
Description
I have mistakenly changed the content of some lang strings while fixing bugs recently. This is bad.
The correct procedure is to delete old language string, and create a new one with a new name. That way translators can see the strings that need to be retranslated.
So I need to
1. Get a list of which strings I have changed from CVS.
2. Email translation@moodle.org to explain my mistake, and ask them whether they would prefer me to:
3a. Rename all the changed strings now.
or
3b. Give the the list of changed strings so that they can retranslate them.

Well, I did some changes too
It might be better to automate the process a bit and make a list of added+changed strings for each release and feed it into the translation tool and color it a bit...
In any case you should not be deleting any strings that might be needed by any 1.6.x version, because the latest language packs are shared in the STABLE and HEAD branch.
IMO you can improve the English language file, but we should not change the meaning completely - it must make sense in 1.6.X and any later versions.
