=> another bug? - how can I get 40 groups installed when only 13
were selected?
(did I miss something, are those groups of groups? - I haven't
found such)
what should I do with all those Support groups, I can't speak
Japanese and I even did not know what is "Venda"? (no offense, I
just don't live in Africa and I'm perfectly okay with the fact
that some people know nothing about Czech :-))

yeah, I understand - I just wondered what are the reasons, if
there is really no room for improvement
and Bruno makes a good point - I totally forgot about the games
... shame on me: especially when these days I'm trying to write a
spec for FreeOrion which is not that small
