These are string formatting for how the time should be rendered. It doesn't get printed on the screen. It doesn't need to be translated.

> var date_string = date.format(_("%d %B %Y"));
Same

Same

The date gets printed in a format specified by these strings. Preferred date formats are different in various languages, so formatting strings needs to be marked for translation.

This is covered here: http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#Aspects

As for Stefanoss branch: you missed the untranslated Name string in the ApplicationsTreeView class. This is not visible, but it is an accessible description of the blacklisted applications list, and can be heard when using Orca.

Also you should mark the time formatting strings for translation too. Also please avoid using string surgeries like:

time.format(today + ", %H:%M")

This won't look good in some languages, even if the two parts would be translatable individually. See: https://live.gnome.org/TranslationProject/DevGuidelines/Never%20split%20sentences

@Stefano

I reviewed yours. It's fine. Will merge it by end of the day

@Gabor
Cool. Looks fine. Will merge both the branches.

I just checked Stefano's diff. Will have a thorough look at the codebcase before making a release.
