I might repeat myself. But I do not think the problem is the extraction of the documents, but how to make it available. Maintainers are normaly intirested in beeing translated and should be connected to the software upstream who are also often intrested in having more things translated. If there was an easy way to add things to be translated, I really think much will be supplied. And with easy I mean something a maintainer not done any localisation or translation himself can understand and use. > project on every language on Alioth and auto-synchonize files between > unstable and l10n-CVS, this work could be far more transparent to the > translators. I don't know if cvs is very well fitted fo that. If you start with branches it will loose it's transparency. And if you have only one version you will always run after the version in unstable, and loose the possibility to prepare translations before a package is uploaded. Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R.
