Yes, I'll include both translations in the upcoming release.

In order to get the script changes in the tutorial, you have to load
the tutorial in the map editor, go into its script editor, and hit
load and load the SGSL file. The tutorial doesn't actually load the
SGSL file, the SGSL file is more of an export/import feature.

Thanks allot for your active support in keeping the Dutch translation
updated, it is greatly appreciated.

The upcoming release features new "translation text shot" code which
causes glob2 to generate a bunch of pictures that show translations,
and where they are appearing on the screen. You run the game once, and
every time a translation is used, a screen shot is generated that
shows what translation and where it appeared on the screen. Could be
quite useful in finding out keys are for what.
