I disagree, if translators believe that comments should be added, they talk to developers and such comments are added to sources and automatically merged into PO files afterwards. With your solution, you cannot know who made these comments, and what happens if several people add comments in different PO files at the same time? > One could imagine a large total of comments, but > certainly to start out with, it would provide the translator with > some information in the PO file, not having to hunt it up anywhere > else, and allow us to help each other out, not duplicate effort. This can also be achieved by adding a comments.po file which is hand edited by translators if they want to add comments before they reach sources. I believe that it is pretty useless, but we could give it a try. Denis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
