 * After upgrading to 3.0.5 translation for “%d days”, “%d hours”, … are broken (
   not translated).
 * Creating a new translation using .pot file or updating in from source does not
   solve the problem. Seems to be related to changes in the plugin source.

 * In order to work, the translation file .po needs to be compiled into a .mo file.
   If you send me the PO file you generated, I can compile it for you and include
   it in the next release. You can also use a program like poEdit ([http://poedit.net](http://poedit.net))
   or an online conversion utility like [http://tools.konstruktors.com/](http://tools.konstruktors.com/)
   to compile it yourself.

 * Maybe I was not clear enough…
 * I made the .mo file (this’s not new stuff for me), but there’s some problem with
   the plugin code regarding to that strings.
 * Anyway, I can send you .po and .mo files if you tell me where to send them.

 * I just need the po file. You can post it as a Gist at [https://gist.github.com/](https://gist.github.com/)
