I am not sure if I can be a great help, anyway I went through the same process of transition to .po for debian-history and the it language. (victory on the IRC channel was a great help and many thanks again for that) I will try to remember as much as I can . > I worked through the german sgml files, to make the structure match > the english sgml files. > > Now I tried po4a-gettextize, but it fails very early: > > > ted@IBM-T60:~/deb/debian-faq/debian-faq$ po4a-gettextize -v -f sgml -m > basic_defs.sgml -l de/basic_defs.sgml -p de/01.po > nsgmls:<OSFD>0:3:0:E: no document type declaration; will parse without > validation > po4a::sgml: Error while running nsgmls -p.

If I recall correctly you only have to work on debian-faq.sgml since all the other files are included there and that is the only file mentioned in po4a.cfg anyway. That will also explain the complaints about "no document type declaration" since the document type is only declared in the debian-faq.sgml file (I think). Another thing I had to do was to find in the archives the sgml English version corresponding to the Italian sgml translation. otherwise the paragraphs did not match and I did end with errors and little translated. Basically I did as follows. 1) Find in the archive/repo the original .sgml files corresponding to the Italian translation. 2) I used a command similar to: po4a-gettextize -f sgml -m project-history.it.sgml -M UTF-8 -L UTF-8 -l project-history.it.sgml -p it.po 3) then I updated the .po file with the new .pot, bringing the Italian .po file up to date (well much was fuzzy or untranslated of course :) And from then on it was just the usual work.
