User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401

Character "n" is missing in german language pack in zipped JAR File:
%mozilladir%\chrome\de-AT.jar => \locale\de-AT\calendar\file calendar.dtd =>
line 160
<!ENTITY todo.title.edit "Aufgabe bearbeite"> should be
<!ENTITY todo.title.edit "Aufgabe bearbeiten">


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
With "German Language" activated in your Mozilla, start your calendar and open a
task item in your calendar, the title of the window will be "Aufgabe bearbeite".


Expected Results:  
The window title should be "Aufgabe bearbeiten". The missing "n" is not longer
missing.

1. extract file %mozilladir%\chrome\de-AT.jar in \tmp\fix subdirectory, instead   
   of "\fix" you can use any other name, with the option "full pathname"
2. Open file \tmp\fix\locale\de-AT\calendar\calendar.dtd in an editor
   (i.e. "notepad.exe") and append an "n" to "bearbeite" 
   <!ENTITY todo.title.edit "Aufgabe bearbeite"> in line 160, so it will be 
   <!ENTITY todo.title.edit "Aufgabe bearbeiten"
3. Save the file and make sure, your editor did not create a backup copy. If it   
   does so, delete the backup copy afterwards.
4. Change to the "\tmp\fix" directory and zip the whole path "\locale\" 
   including all subdirectories, with a ZIP program like "Winzip". Make sure
   to select the option "store relative pathnames" (NOT "full pathnames").
   Name the resulting archive as "de-AT.jar"
5. Close all your Mozilla windows (Mail, Calendar, Navigator,..) and also the
   quickstart part of Mozilla
6. Copy the file "\tmp\fix\de-AT.jar" to "%mozilladir%\chrome\de-AT.jar" and 
   confirm the question to overwrite with "YES"
7. Now the correct title will be displayed in your "Edit task" window of the 
   calendars
