Natalie, do you think you would be able to find and ask the original author to ask? Danny
Hi Danny, Found the address, asked the question, now we just wait ;) Natalie
Hi Danny, The 24th of august I mailed Josef Weidendorfer about the metrics, still no reply ... :( === START QUOTE Date: 2005-08-24 18:31 From: Natalie <nat@switch.demon.nl> (None whatsoever ...) To: Josef.Weidendorfer@gmx.de Hi Josef, While reviewing the Dutch translation of konq_plugins_fsview.po I encountered this sentence: index.docbook:54 The metric must have the property that the sum of the children's metrics of some object is equal or smaller than the object's metric. I submitted a bug report (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111071) with this comment: - I must be missing something ... It seems rather obvious that the metric (the size) has the property that the sum of the children's metrics (the sum of subdir sizes and file sizes) is equal or smaller than the object's metric (the directory's size). Danny Allen wrote an additional comment: BUG:111071 Fix bug - the first part only slightly modified, as I think that file size is not the only intended metric (perhaps tree depth, etc?) Can you please explain what you meant by these "metrics"? Thanks :) === END QUOTE Maybe you could try again ... Cheers, Natalie
