Another tool is textproc/po4a that Thomas Abthorpe showed me on one of
the hacker lounges two years ago in Canada. He set up a test project
for a translation into en_GB to see how these tools fit our toolchain.

He send me the following mini-howto, which I extended a bit for a
first commit to the german doc repo recently:

<mini-howto>
install textproc/po4a
install editors/poedit # optional
install devel/gtranslator #optional
install lokalize # somewhere in kde4, too lazy to look

To prep a new translation, inline, same directory the following works.
Substitute en_GB for the language of your choice.

po4a-gettextize -f xml -m article.sgml -p article.pot # renders to pot
file

I can use poedit to do the translation, but I always get
  article.pot:7: header field 'Project-Id-Version'
  still has the initial default value

It does appear to save the translations to article.pot, this is something to do with catalogs. Manually editing article.pot and setting "Language: \n" to "Language: en_GB\n" then complains about the "Project-Id-Version" line having a default value.

I put everything in the DevSummit wiki page and will start a separate
one with the results from the summit to continue from there:

The instructions don't seem to be there.  On another page?
