Thank you, it has been added to the distribution. Certain strings were  
already missing so if you want, you could get the file from CVS and update  
it :-)

I think UTF-8 is most definately the preferred option since we're trying  
to move towards that. One less language to have to worry about converting.

I suppose so, yes. Please file an issue about it on  
http://bugs.mantisbt.org/

It does not update the access level and the enabled flag. I can't think of  
why at the moment.

No, there's no difference in Mantis. I don't think we'll be getting  
multiple users for one account or vice versa.

Thank you (on behalf of everyone, of course)!
