ok, second point addressed, I can now automatically generate
multilingual installers:
https://github.com/sblaisot/mixxx/commit/edf8be9fb3d4a63ccc424b42cef4fb2c528998bc
I'll try to work on wix translation file transformation to include
installer translation to transifex tomorrow (time for me to sleep now).

Yeah, I found way to make a multilingual MSI installer:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/103749/Creating-a-Localized-Windows-Installer-Bootstrap
Pretty hard, but really cool. So it seems we will be able to ship a
unique windows installer that uses the correct language at runtime (or
in fact two, one for 32bits and the other for 64bits)
Currently what needs to be done now:
1) find a way to transform wxl files (wix localization files) to a
format transifex can read.
The best choice is probably a po file.
I had a hard time to use okapi, finally got a test project on
transifex with the strings to translate using a po file, but I am
unable to convert it back to wxl :(
jus, can you help me with that ?
the other solution is to try to transform it with a little of vbscript
or powershel (yuck), that doesn't seems too complicated (on linux, I
would have it done in 5 minutes with perl or even bash).
2) try embedding multi languages in installer.
I will try with french and english.
If someone can send me the german translation of the attached file too
(I know there are german-speaking people here) before we get it on
transifex, it would be great and let me try with more than 2 languages.
thanks,

Reading [1] and [2], i understand that we need the wix toolset to
extract *.wxl translation templates for each language to be supported.
Unfortunately, Transifex does not support the wxl format for import [3].
Might be possible to convert wxl templates to a format Transifex
supports, and vis-a-vis after translation, using the Okapi framework
[4] though.
Can investigate tomorrow (CET) if needed.

I built english and french installers, but I will need more
translations. Can somebody explain me how to extract strings and
make a file suitable for transifex ?
We can maybe publish it to transifex as a new resource ?
