I am not sure of this. A few years ago we seem to have a consensus on
an informal "API" that allows tracking untranslated changes [1]. This
was the %SRCID% tag placed in the translated files. Using this tag,
one could generate nice stats about the work to do [2], and get the
diffs to work with. At least, that is what I did for a few years...
Interesting!
no reuse of previously-translated terms.
I have maintained a vocabulary for the translation of commonly used
expressions [3] in the past. So I was consistent with myself at least
:-P
Well, yes, but this appears to be manual and does not automatically
translate the same strings that are found in other documents. That is
part of what the newer automated systems do.

I did find a patch for itstool that seems to be what is needed to add
DTD support so entities are expanded. I have not tested it yet.
