If you could read German, you would have noted that changing the resource
file is explicitly forbidden. At least it was in the first version (I will
look in the current).

Sorry about the odd way of quoting. I'm learning a different newsreader, but
anyway, this is now saj speaking.
I interpreted the notice the same way as Piet did. I said something about
it to a native German friend, who couldn't understand what I was talking
about. He re-read it, and said that he could see why I read it that way, but
what it meant was that the authors of the compiler were absolutely not going
to provide translations of the documentation or the resource. Of course
he's a pretty cheerful fellow by nature, but unless another German says
otherwise, I think what we have here is an idiom.
