po2prop would be the tool you want.

I'd also suggest first checking that prop2po handles all your needs,
maybe check bugs.locamotion.org and review any related to properties
files to ensure that they don't affect you.

Wynand, Friedel or Wil are the hooks still in 1.3?

In terms of release for 1.3?  Wynand is busy trying to close off some
major changes in the Django port.  We'll still need a period of
stabilisation which I guess at minimum will take us through March.

So I'd say 1.3 might be a little unstable for you for a while and
depends on how quickly you want the service up and running or if you are
going to have a period of testing.
