 Tested with latest and updated images (normal+dev)

 Windows XP working as admin
 Between all steps save+reload of images

 Step A1
 Download + unzip http://etoys.laptop.org/src/etoys-image-and-pr.zip into
 directory c:\olpc\olpc_etoy_1\
 nav-bar-> choose language -> *17 languages available*

 Step A2
 Preferences->Restore All Default Preference Settings

 Step A3
 load latest code updates (1963) + save image
 nav-bar-> choose language -> *6 languages available !!*

 Step A4
 Download + compile latest etoys.po from Pootle

 Step A5
 copy etoys.mo -> c:\olpc\olpc_etoy_1\lang\de\LC_MESSAGES\etoys.mo
 RESULT no recent translations -> only in-image-translations are displayed

 Step A6
 copy etoys.po ->  c:\olpc\olpc_etoy_1\lang\de\LC_MESSAGES\etoys.po
 RESULT no recent translations -> only in-image-translations are displayed


 STEP A7
 back to orignal image from download (without cs 1917-1963)
 RESULT recent po/mo-translations are displayed


 -> one of cs between 1917-1963 avoids the po/mo-translations to be used

 -> manual gettext-import necessary :-(
