I'm quite tempted to say that we can work in confidence and have all this work being imported straight away. Just needs to find someone wanting to automate all this. > Thus, I assume that it's not as simple as importing our translations as > FUZZY in a PO file, right ?

The Italian team has some things, IIRC.

That's the most difficult point, indeed. Maybe Martijn van Oosterhout (who manages the code behind the DDTSS) is the person who is the most able to help out here.
