I think we have been using fuzzy marking as another way to keep track  
of strings that need reviewing. So as long as we have review  
capability, as long as we can mark strings for review, and enter  
information about the strings, the ability to mark strings as fuzzy  
may not be required.

Again, msgctxt is going to simplify a lot of this for us.

Please give msgctxt some priority. One way we'll get developers using  
it, is by showing people how it works.

I wish I could. I can't even write a simple regex now.

BTW, have you seen MacFreelancer? [1] There may be other similar  
sites, and in any case, the people who look for work here probably  
can handle non-Mac-specific work. I like the idea: people with some  
time available can do odd tasks other people need done. It's a useful  
resource to fill some gaps, if you don't have the people available at  
the time.
