It's gone, as nothing was translated any more.

Here are some comments on the translation.

The boiler plate does not include the name of the translator.

The mailing address to the Swedish language team is not -unavailable- (it does not even exist?) and I'm the only Swedish GNOME translator.
Correct address should be tp-sv@listor.tp-sv.se.

The file uses both UTF-8 and ISO 8859-1 and therefor renders a lot of strings as corrupted.

msgfmt: found 10 fatal errors

msgstr "kan inte allokera minne för ljud-data "

ljud-data = ljuddata (without a trailing space)

msgstr "okänkt ljudformat % begärt. gnash hanterar det inte"

okänkt = okänt

msgstr "Fell uppstod under resampling av ljud"

Fell = Fel
resampling = omsampling

msgstr "Detta ljud-codec, %d, är okänt. Sänd SWF-filen till en utvecklare"

ljud-codec = ljudkodek

The rest of the strins are in German or untranslated.

It's work in progress and I use the german translation as a stub. On the grammar issues I doubt there is anything wrong. As a friend of mine once said; "Setting my locale to Swedish under the influence of alcohol made me laugh a whole night".

Albeit I'll change the language code to 'sv'.

Since this is a short file, I'd rather see it fixed, than removed. Since you can obviously read swedish, what about making corrections ?

I did a quick look at the Swedish translation for gnash.
It is not good (grammar issues, wordings, swenglish etc) and does contain a lot of German words.

It also uses the wrong ISO 631-1 language code.
"se" is Sami language, "sv" is Swedish though.

My suggestion is that the translation should be removed.
