The .pot is only a reference (xml2po unfortunately does not add the normal gettext header with time of last translation, time of creation, ... - so I added a short comment about the version and the time). The po-files are updated from the latest .pot by using msgmerge (or the -u option of xml2po, which also calls msgmerge). > Do we get those nice fuzzy qualifications in the .po > stuff then? We get this fuzzy stuff. But I observe a buggy behaviour (xml2po does not add the po-Headers to the output file). I will contact the maintainer for fixing this. At the moment, msgmerge will remove all special characters, because of the missing headers. That's a bit annoying. > Another thing, the .po method also allows to make translation statistics. > Have > you explored that already? IMHO you can use msgfmt to print the statistics. At the moment, there will be problems, because of the missing Headers. I hope, the author of xml2po will answer soon.
