Hi Martin, I already talked to Eirik Wulff in a private correspondence and he was ok with the changes. And I sent an email til Lars Erik over a month ago explaining the changes, but I haven't gotten a response from him yet.
I understand you don't want an edit war, neither do I. And that's why I posted it here and in the bugzilla, explaining that it might be a bit controversial, and hoping to get their views on it. As I said, Eirik Wulff agreed with me off-list and Lars Erik haven't responded yet, so I think you can add the translation to cvs. The one word which was a bit "controversial" was added to otrs at January 24, so people shouldn't be too confused that we change it back. Regards Espen Stefansen PS. I'll post this reply in bugzilla too.
