- I've checked out the latest version and it compiles fine with vala
  v0.12.1, but not with versions from the v0.13.x series. Could it be
  possible to make shotwell always compile against the newest version of
  vala?
- There is one annoying text in the german version. If I import new
  pictures, I can click on
        
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +---------------------+
  | Abbrechen   |      | Fotos kopieren  |   | Import läuft gerade |
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +---------------------+
        
  with the English meaning
        
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +---------------------+
  | Cancel      |      | Copy photos     |   | Import is going on  |
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +---------------------+
        
  Instead the English version shows the correct button contents
        
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +---------------------+
  | Cancel      |      | Copy photos     |   | Import in place     |
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +---------------------+
        
  From the german context the correct inscription could be something
  like
        
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +------------------------+
  | Abbrechen   |      | Fotos kopieren  |   | Import durch Verlinken |
  +-------------+      +-----------------+   +------------------------+
        
  so could you please change the text in file shotwell-core/de.po (line
  2758)
        
  from "_Import läuft gerade" to "_Import durch Verlinken"
        
Kind regards
Jobst
