We don't have any procedure for updating that file. It comes probably from
reports of bugs and someone updates. Sending an email to this list is a way
as well. And if it comes from a trusted source (like nic.fr) we can probably
speed up the change.

But there's no mechanism in place for distributing the updated file short of a
new KDE release. And there will be no more large KDE 3.5 releases, and
probably no more 4.0 releases either. Linux distributors might pick up the
changes we make if we let them know, so they update their packages (whether
it applies to old, current or new versions of the distributions, we can't
really tell).
