I cannot reliably translate the messaeges qp_error_too_many_spans, and qp_error_too_few_spans because their wordings are ambiguous. Is there a chance to have them explained in the qqq space?

Hmmm, best to ask the extension maintainer directly.

'qp_error_too_many_spans' and 'qp_error_too_few_spans' are quite simple. The extension allows to group categories of answers into "spans" which are similar to sets of radiobuttons. Total sum of number of categories defined in spans should match total number of categories defined. That's all. There are three examples (for old version, however should work for trunk as well):

Categories "1" and "2" belong to span "A" (1/2 are a set of radiobuttons). Categories "3" and "4" belongs to span "B" (3/4 are separate set of radiobuttons). Header of poll is "OK".

{Checking various types of questions, 2
|type="()"}
|| Two categories span "A"|| Two categories span "B"
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4

Categories "1", "2", "3" belong to span "A". Span "B" claims that two categories belong to him. However there is only one category defined left: "4". So there is 'qp_error_too_many_spans' error.

{Checking various types of questions, 2
|type="()"}
||| Three categories span "A"|| Two categories span "B"
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4

Categories "1" and "2" belong to span "A". Categories "3" and "4" belong to span "B". However, there is still one "spanless" category "5" left. There is 'qp_error_too_few_spans' error.

|| Two categories span "A"|| Two categories span "B"
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

(S)he is not native English which shows at various places. I've already suggested that, a person who knows the extension and does write English better should review the texts (messages, and documentation) of this extension. There are several more messages which are strange to me and/or having imho questionable translations here and there. I'll try my luck again.
