 Can we do it for an already released version? Maybe translations +
bugfixing could be the 0.6.91

 UUUhhhhh 0.7.0 release is still faaaar away :) First step is to merge
the work already done into trunk.

 No more big changes in 0.6.9x series. Improving speed and extractors
and general bugfixing. Nothing new in the UI side, i think, Except...

 What about marking some of those as gnome-love? It is gtk-related code
and maybe some new contributors can help with that.

 Can we do the same with 0.6.9x? Announce a string freeze "now" (next
week or so) and release 0.6.91 in one month?
