updating installer localizations -- translations wanted (#1232)

Hi,

some translations (debconf templates) for the packages used in the 
installer are out of date. Having improved the english wording, we don't 
have updated the translations. I prepared a tarball with message 
catalogs sorted by language, which need one or more updates for the 
localization. It's easy and it's the first impression on the distro 
which gets a bit better for non-english speakers.

- please get the tarball from 
https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1232
  attachment https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/attachment.cgi?id=67
- send a followup to the bug report saying which language you want to update
- the updates itself can/should be done with some language tool. gtranslator
  is part of warty.
- attach the updated catalogs to the bug report or email it me.

I'll collect the updates, prepare the packages and submit them to Colin 
for review.

Thanks, Matthias
