[openlp-dev] Small Jobs for New Contributors

[Tim and Alison Bentley]

My two cents worth.

1) The version in the title is usefui and when working to 2 versions it is
easy to see which one but it would be good to make i tmore automatic from
BZR using the version check code.

2) translation_utils does work and I use it all the time to update the
translations round.  Unless you can change all translations leave alone.

The rest seem fine.
