German Translation

Please note that the German de_DE localization for other open so= urce sw often comes in two versions: in a formal ("Sie") and an i= nformal ("Du") version. For instance, many WordPress users prefer= the informal version (about 60% of the users). However, for professional b= logs in corporate environments, the formal version is often more appropriat= e.

Now, when I started translating from EN to DE for Ushahidi, I used the f= ormal version but then quickly switched to the informal version because - a= nd that's what I am still missing with the strings on transifex - most text= seems to be for the backend only. So the German de_De version is now based= on the informal "Du" (only).=C2=A0

It would be great to have= a test sandbox which directly pulls the localization for an instant previe= w and also some kind of info which text belongs to the frontend and which t= ext belongs to be backend (as this sometimes matters). Thx!=C2=A0

This also applies to Crowdmap!
