towards 4.5.1 and 4.6

Since we have an easy to create crash with Windows / German translation I am leaning towards a rather rapid 4.5.1.

From the data it appears that about 500 out of our 8500 current users have upgraded - that's pretty impressive given how many of our users only touch Subsurface a couple times a year. So far the bugs filed against 4.5.0 are two enhancement requests and Petrel communication issue (the crash mentioned above never made it into trac).

I have applied the patches that were sent:
- print templates (thanks Lubomir)
- free diving stuff (thank Giorgio)
- a couple random small things for both Subsurface and libdivecomputer (Robert, Anton, Gaetan, Ash)

I fixed the bugs in the translations (thanks Robert - that script is extremely useful)... 

I'm wondering what else we need.

If you missed 4.5 with your translation, now is a good time to catch up (Hi Benjamin).

I know that some (cough - Tomaz - cough) are itching to get their "Subsurface-next" code into master, but it would be nice if we could spend a couple of days to figure out if there's anything else that we missed.

Current tentative plan:

4.5.1 "in a few days" (I'll be traveling the next ten days which will make this a bit more fun)
4.5.2 early November (I'm just guessing that we'll need this - who knows)

I'll open master for patches that are targeting 4.6 once 4.5.1 has been tagged.

Comments, complaints?
