===Translation Workflow===
Draft suggestions ...
The original files are in cvs.
====.po files====
*gettext strings are in various files in cvs, currently we think we have them all in pootle as .pot template files
: we need a script to search a maintained list of files to extract current gettext strings
: this may find missing (or modified) strings or remove old ones saving on pointless translations
*existing translations have been placed in pootle and merged with the templates
:this shows missing translations very nicely and is ready for user testing
*all .po files have been converted to UTF-8, they can be converted back easily if necessary
*changes to original files, ie changed gettext strings, have to be tracked as usual in the bug tracker
:these are imported into the templates, other languages are updated with a click
*at some point we diff against cvs po files, the patch is checked and applied.
