I plan to move the i18n data gathered by a script written by i18n team
(source should be available somewhere) into UDD. The data are containing
information what language translation files a source is containing and
thus enables to guess in what languages an application might be translated
into.
When doing so I noticed that the script seems not to regard other
translation methods than gettext (no Java translations or Qt's *.qm
files). When reading that there might be an easy way to access the
source code it might become quite cheap to enhance / rewrite the
gathering script. What do you think?

Would you consider such i18n analysis as one such thing?
Kind regards
Andreas.
