Hi,

To use the translation

1. Compile it using msgfmt:

msgfmt -o kdenlive.mo <your>.po

2. Move kdenline.mo to /usr/share/locale/<your locale>/LC_MESSAGES

3. If your session locale is not <your locale>, use the corresponding  
"Help" menu item in Kdenlive main menu to change the locale for Kdenlive.

To share

Compile some dummy package for you OS (rpm, deb or something else) with  
kdenlive.mo and install it from additional repository. Or just copy the  
file to the same location as it was pointed above for all users.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Yuri

P.S. KDEnlive is a part of KDE now, so you might want to join KDE  
translation team to have your translation in the next Kdenlive releases.
