I fully agree with Norbert. It's been quite irritating to have the
German translations of the tag presets when you are used to the English
ones. My workaround was renaming the .qm file to something else.
It's good to have the presets translated if you are new to mapping with
Merkaartor, of course. So let people choose.

Again, I fully agree. At least twice I had reported a bug that was
already fixed in SVN. I think it is important to let people test the
Windows build, too - in the most current version. There might be issues
showing up that are invisible in the Linux build.  I remember that
translation issue in 0.11...
