    KBabel has syntax highlight and correction. I will find errors like 
you have 3 %s in the english text and 2 %s in the translated text.

    Nah!! The new strings to translate are created in the current es.po 
when you make the project!! The msgmerge i told you to use is from S2_0 
brach to update the translations of S2_1 and HEAD with the new 
translations in this brach. I updated the spanish translation for 
Freeciv 2.0.8 and is nearly complete.

    Because there are 300-400 translated messages in the S2_0 brach that 
are not in S2_1 and HEAD!
