Pretty much spot on..

At present it doesnt work out what has been changed and only update those - it does a 
full 'remake' of all the elements when prompted.

stage 1 the parser
- reads all the 'text' from the original html pages
- stores it in the database using md5sums of the strings.

stage 2 the input system
the interface does a look up on similar words already translations and uses these for 
suggestions
Attempts to summarize the number of missing words.. 


stage 3 reparse and update
re reads the original translations and creates or updates the translated template 
based on the results of the first one.

stage 4 import/export 
saves each database entry in a serialize format (not 100% reliable but not too bad)

Thats one of those leftover todos- 
you have to create a snippetdir in the hklc_adminsite_tools/data directory with the 
name of the language you want to add..
