This is really not an helpful responds.

Actually it is. He's willing to do it but we need the language diffs off
someone. I don't think Avar speaks Dutch, and neither do I, hence we need you
to help us as much as we can help you.

Great. I ask to change a detail that you can do in the time to write an email.
And I must install cvs, find out how works it, change to file and commit it. I
will try to make the patch.

You don't need to install CVS, you can download the file from
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/wikipedia/phase3/languages/LanguageNl.php

OTOH, if I were booted into the right OS to get at my CVS client, I'd happily
copy the text out of the MediaWiki messages you link to - as you say, it's not
difficult to copy and paste 2 messages - so if you can't work out how to make a
patch I'll probably do that in the next couple of days.
