Where is the .pot file stored? It is not in the usual /po/ directory: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hello.git/tree/po I know that strictly speaking, the .pot file is a generated file, but still, generating it requires an external tool (xgettext) that uses heuristics, so I would rather keep a copy in the repository, if only to be able to easily see when and why messages change. Where do you record which version of xgettext was used to build the releases of GNU hello? Relying on the Translation Project for storing the .po files feels questionable to me. Are you able to reconstruct a build of GNU hello from 1995? In the light of reproducible builds, GNU hello does not set a good example, in my opinion. Roland
