Just my 5 cents.
At the end thats what it is all about. But to get there integration work need to be done. In short: 1) Plone has a great system dealing with translations. It does work with PO/POT (gettext) on one level (developer-level), on the other level (author/editor-level) it does not. 2) Translators at gnome-project are used to work with PO/POT files and a GIT. 3) I proposed a way to bridge it using a simple webservice and the tools you already have (xml2po, git repository). 4) We need i18n-aware developers which helps interfacing the two worlds. Tasks: A) adapting xml2po to support ATXML (Plone XML output) B) create a software pulling POT files and pushing translated files and let xml2po munge them and commit them to GIT. C) Define a policy who is allowed/how/when to invoke (B) I cant do (A) - its more in the domain of the original authors of xml2po or developers familar with xml2po. I can help with (B) (providing a basic Python-script doing the work of pulling/pushing). But integration/last polishing is in my opinion more in the Sysadmins domain. For (C) I propose: who: sysadmins/webadmins, automatic+log, daily. regards -- Jens W.
