Usually this would be really appreciated but the rebuilding
of pot files
is slightly more complicated as it sounds. There are various
undocumented manual task to do, which I regularly do, but
you couldn't
have known about. This goes from manually excluding certain
files from
the 2.1 plone skins (the old edit forms for non-atct-based
content
types), removing some stupid 'false positives' from pot
files (like
msgid "archetypes") to rescuing translations for
literal msgid's where
the original text has only been spell-fixed.

So while I appreciate your work, it would have been nice if
you would
have asked me first to spare us some work ;)

Now I resynced them again and they should be ready for
consumption.

Well right now I cope with this manually by rebuilding the
pot files
under both Plone versions and diffing them into one that is
valid for
both versions.

So far there has been no real conflicts between both
versions and as
long as this is the case, I would like to stick to the
simple plan. My
reason here is, as already argued, that I do not want to
make
translating Plone more difficult as it has to be. Subversion
branches
are some added complexity I would like to avoid as long as
it is possible.

I guess this won't be the case for too long anymore as I
expect some of
the UI folks to start tweaking things in 2.5 soon, as the
infrastructure
is nearly finished now. But as I cannot foretell the future
I would like
to wait with the branching once this happens. Ideally we
would see a
2.1.3 and a 2.5-beta2 release with shared translations
before.

Best wishes,
Hanno
