I have noticed that the translation from stable branch was merged, I'll
start working on its update as soon as possible. The good news is that I
took protein crystallography course last semester so I might even be
able to translate the gcrystal part.
Would you be willing to give me the svn access so that I could do that
incrementally without the need to spam you with mail? I promise not to
touch anything apart from po/pl.po. If not, I understand, and I could
email you the updated .po files as before.
