sorry it took me some time to reply.. i saw this earlier, but then didn't have time to reply.. and then forgot
The Changes.lang file should list all changes made to the language files. Usually the devs only make changes in english, or possibly another language they know, but definately not all.
In that case, they either leave it be, in which case the information in a certain lang file may be incorrect, or they overwrite all language versions with the english language string for that specific change.
Below I included the Changes.lang for current svn and with the complete changes.lang for .22 because the one that was present in .22 wasn't up to date.
I also attached the current SVN language file for both french and english.
Maybe you can compare (with a program like WinMerge, or with the help of below Changes.lang) the attached fr.l to the one you originally edited (probably the fr.l from anope 1.7.21) to get an idea of what has changed and apply the same changes to the language file you send us. Otherwise we d have to overwrite all those missing or changes entries with english again
