"Select the groups you want this contact to appear in, you can select more than one group or no groups."

It should read

"Select the groups you want this contact to appear in - you can select more than one group or no groups."

So it doesn't sound like one big sentence without pauses.

I agree with you; actually I think it could be separated in two full sentences.  Perhaps even "Select the groups you want this contact to appear in.  Note you can
select more than one group or no groups."

rephrase "select the groups..." sentence
Comment 3 Vadim Peretokin 2008-08-11 17:51:15 UTC 
If two, then this would be work:

"Select the groups you want this contact to appear in.  Note that you can select more than one group or no groups at all."
Comment 4 Vadim Peretokin 2008-08-11 17:52:23 UTC 
Sorry, the last one has two spaces for some reason. Here is the proper one:

"Select the groups you want this contact to appear in. Note that you can
select more than one group or no groups at all."

Thanks.
Comment 7 Frederic Peters 2008-08-12 10:29:19 UTC 
Commited, and I mailed gnome-i18n about the string change.
