Hello,

I've updated the french translation, but not commited it yet (see last mail).

There is some problems with the recent strings. There is a lot of strings that 
are close duplicates, such as 
[inn level 0]
[inn level 1]
[inn level 2]
...
[build inn level 0]
[build inn level 1]
[build inn level 2]
...
[build swimmingpool level 0]
[build swimmingpool level 1]
[build swimmingpool level 2]
This is bad. Those strings should be composed in the game by the name of the 
building and the level. If some grammar is involved, another string, such as
[%0 level %1]
should be used.

The same apply for
[switch to area brush 1]
...
[switch to area brush 8]

Coders have to ease the life of contributors, not make it a nightmare.
I *strongly* mean it.

For instance, building name should appear only once in the translations.

Those things may seem details, but they are important. They make contributors 
feel understood, happy, and willing to contribute more and better.

Steph
