Description Freek de Kruijf 2009-10-02 11:19:25 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Currently there is a long list of city names in kstars that need translation. Some of these names are also present in kgeography, in marble and in kdelibs/timezones4. In order to have a consistent translation it would be better to group all these names in one module. ISO does have codes for countries and subdivisions of countries. I don't know if they have, or are working on, a code system for city names, otherwise that should be used in that module and kstars should use these codes to represent city names.

Hi!

At some point kstars will use marble's names. We are still waiting for some features to be implemented in marble though. So I do not think it is worth the effort to do anything right now.

No plan to introduce another dependency at the moment.
