Dead modules?

["Duarte Loreto" <happyguy_pt hotmail com>]

   Hello!

As I was finishing up the Portuguese translation of GNOME 2.2, I checked in 
new files for some modules that had no activity on the main ChangeLog (the 
one on the root directory) for some months other than new translation adding 
in configure.in.

My question is, then, how sure are we that all modules listed on the Extra 
page are still alive? Could it be that some teams are waisting time 
translating modules that will not be released any further and so will not 
put the new translations on the street?

Another thing... Some modules have a gnome-2 branch. But the HEAD is listed 
on the 1.4 Extras page. This makes me wonder... Should we checkin the 
gnome-2 translations as UTF-8 and the HEAD as ISO-8859-15 (put here your 
code) or both as UTF-8? I've been checking in both as UTF-8, but I'm affraid 
I'll break new 1.4 releases...

One last on modules... From the 1.4 modules, which ones are still worth 
translating/updating? I feel that I shouldn't waist time with 1.4 modules, 
but it seems that at least Sodipodi, Evolution, Galeon and Gnumeric are 
still making releases. Are there any others?

Thank you for reading my bla, bla... :) Be Happy!
