Isn't this mapping more related to the fact that the mime-types are needed as anchor to know where to insert the translations but to parsing a merged documents.ulf ? Also: your script relies on internals of the translation process here: as long as you don't have a "contract" with the l10n framework maintainers, the structure of sdf files is subject to chance without notice. > And: Please don't add hacks to fix broken translations.

Actually this code is also in translate.pl and was intended for beta only (the name change "Open Office -> OpenDocument" came on pretty short notice). I should have removed it instead of copying without thinking. Depending on how fast we agree on a long term goal, we might need a different issue for this to fix it as soon as possible. So my approach on this would be: a) make the shared-mime-info file the source for all mime-type handling (this will require some icon renaming) and b) get the shared-mime-info format directly supported by our l10n framework (obsoleting documents.ulf) c) copy the existing translation database to their new keys (will need help von Ivo & Ause for this) However I am not sure if this should done for OOo 2.0. I could also live with following your suggestion for OOo 2.0.x and implement the other solution on a CWS targeted for OOo Next.
