I just updated administrivia.po and boot-installer.po, but the only changed 
strings were about credits, and one insert in an accessibility sentence. Are 
there supposed to be new/changed strings about kFreeBSD? If so, they haven't 
shown up in my files.

D-I strings are noticeably less painful than others (less typos, grammatic 
errors and cryptic strings). ;)

This is historical, isn't it? po4a made the conversion more viable at some 
point. I know I much prefer using gettext, because I have all the tools 
available, especially for updating and checking strings.

How difficult or time-consuming would it be to convert currently non-po 
languages to gettext?
