i've just taken zinf.pot through the 
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/zinf/zinf/po/

I expect that there won't be too much changes in the future 
release of zinf :)

to submit == to give it you ? Is that so ?

I'm a physical student, a future computer engineer & a programmer 
a little. So I have a good understanding  of what you mean. I'll 
try to sort out the strings.
But i see some strings are missing (for example, tips in main 
window). How to regenerate the zinf.po file ? (what target in 
Makefile from po directory ? )

Yea. I've started translating using KBabel.
I think it's better to use UTF-8 charset for ru zinf.po ? Ok ?

And about some problems with russian 
[14:35][rmn@:~]\> rpm -q zinf
zinf-2.2.4-1rmn
I'm using mandrake 9.1

1st/ There is always wrong font in any russian track name in the 
main window
2nd/ In 'my music' window russian name of current track  crashes 
after *bolding* by double click (==  begin playing). See 
screenshot http://rmn-sh.nm.ru/ruzinf.png

And the last: there was thread about zinf-playlist improvment. To 
my mind, it had to be something like xmms|winamp normal-visible  
playlist. 'My music' is very nice, but, IMHO, it's very unusual 
for most of newbies.
