The strings are now properly translated. The description box needs a new translation, for now it's untranslated.

The latest version of April 2019 was 2.8.
To highlight that is a new version could be useful to change it to 2.9.xx.

For the same reason copyright 2010 about you when the latest changes are 2020 could be changed to Copyright Hakan Lindestaf 2020 (someone could be read as software of 2010...).

2.8 is the "pretty" version number that is user accessible and used in listings. The real version number that is displayed here is used to see which build exactly you are using. There can be many different builds of a single version. This full version number is also visible in file properties of ResxTranslator.exe.

The copyright date should always be the date of the first publication/release. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2390230/do-copyright-dates-need-to-be-updated

All software that I always seen include always in the copyright year th year of of last changes.

Because the copyright is always referred to the property of the code and if the code is changed in 2020 the copyright have to follow the changes.

If you get for example Adobe Reader it report as Copyright 1984-2020 (first release - latest release) that is common form.

While it's true that a copyright range can be added, it doesn't have any legal purpose since the copyright is counted from the first date to until after the author's death. It can be added to make it look better but then it has to be kept up to date.
