Hello James

That's why I think it's important to discuss all this process for good and
cast a vote for what we'll do.
I was this close to give up translating auda when I saw the po file ripped
up like that.
We should be free to use the tool we like most to translate but a standard
must be set when it comes to get our works committed.


Obrigado,

Cleber
