Now it is official, so a correction was necessary.
BTW, everbody speaking at least a bit english should know, that english is
not logical and getting from baker - bakery to butcher - butchery is
nonsense :-) Hopefully the preset translation efforts will help a bit.
BTW: Can somebody tell me (or update the wiki) to explain what
access=destination and
access=designated mean.
Also what is
surface=copperstone
surface=ground
I can think what it may be, but for translations I need to know it 100% or
the translation does not fit.
