This is a reminder to members that the polls are still open. If you haven't 
voted, you have until 12am on 2006-09-02 to do so.

The GNOME and KDE teams have agreed on some conventions regarding the "Trash" 
moniker:

" Trash should be translated to Wastebin when referring to the desktop/file 
manager. Other situations can use either 'Wastebin' or 'Deleted Items' as 
seems most appropriate (KMail uses Deleted Items). Beware of Trash being used 
as a verb which should be translated as 'Move to Wastebin'. "
