I see in the new icelandic totem.po a huge string for plurals:
Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=(n % 100 != 1 && n % 100 !=
21 && n % 100 != 31 && n % 100 != 41 && n % 100 != 51 && n %
100 != 61 && n % 100 != 71 && n % 100 != 81 && n % 100 != 91);\n

Normally we use:
Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=n != 1;\n

Actually there's a bigger problem with the icelandic
translations; almost all recent translations are not merged
into the actual/updated po file, they just lie in DL like
sitting ducks along with the old po. Maybe this is a
question of manually pushing the merger, but anyway I don't
know how this should work, being a plain mortal translator
w/o git or svn/cvs.

I've contacted the is-coordinator and filed a bug but no-one
seems to be able to push those translations.
Among them were totem and totem-pl-parser which still has
the plural bug - corrected by me quite a long time ago.

If there is a howto describing handling of translations in
DamnedLies (for translators), I'd appreciate a link.

Cheers,
