 * How do I activiate another language?
    I see a folder called langs and I have 
   a .mo.po file in Dutch that look perfect. But the names are dbem-nl_NL.mo and
   dbem-nl_NL.po My site config is in dutch (nl_NL) Normally languages of plugins
   and themes are in a folder languages instead of langs and the names usually nl)
   NL.mo instead of dbem-nl_NL.mo. So are the names of the folder and .mo file correct
   or should they be languages and nl_NL.mo ?

 * We’re working on updating the POT files for translation and will add a post soon
   so those willing to translate can do so. Keep your eyes posted on our site news
   over the next day or two.

 * Thanks, but file names remain the same? So I don’t have to change the names of
   the files?

 * Hi all!
 * Kicking this post back to life 🙂
 * I’m trying to update the .po file with the POT bit my Mac wont let me 🙁
    It 
   does not auto create a .mo file and I’m getting a lot of /var errors….
 * Is there someone who can provide me the latest dutch translation?
    If necessary,
   I can provide the update POT file (I hope that will work).

 * Hi Harmen,
 * Read you posts and ran into the same “problems”
 * I am translating the updated po right now but there are quite some lines to go…
   Is it an idea to split up the work (exchange the po file after I have done half
   of the work) and ofcourse afterwards share the po and mo with the plugin builder.

 * am happy to include any translations once you do them, if you do collaborate 
   between you and get back to me, would be appreciated!

 * Hi Richard, at the moment I’m too busy to sit for a while and translate to POT
   File…
    When you think you’ve done your half send me the file and I’ll translate
   the remaining lines… Assuming you do the first “half” 🙂
 * Ofcourse, collaborating with you Marcus. Such a nice plugin deserves the extra
   work of your users 🙂
 * Translation:
    Hey Richard, als jij de eerste helft voor je rekening neemt en 
   mij het geupdate bestand stuurt vertaal ik, zorda ik tijd heb ( komende weken
   te druk) de rest.

 * Hi Harmen (and Marcus).
 * I wanted to get the job done because I have to finish the website that I want
   to use the plugin for.
 * So I managed to spend a few hours on translating the whole .PO.
 * Unfortunately even the ‘fuzzy’ lines needed rework. The comming days I will be
   checking my translations while using the plugin. After the weekend I can send
   you the .po and .mo

 * Finally finished translating the theme to Dutch although some lines on the settings
   page’s still remain in English?!
 * I have filled in the contact form to get details on how to get the PO file to
   the Event Manager team (as mentioned on the plugin website).
 * I assume the translated MO and PO wil be incorporated in the theme files soon.
