Sounds OK to me. What's the next plan?

Some more ideas/food for thought:

We could have "virtual folders" like we do on i18n.r.c: a translator does a `cvs
co translate` there (`cvs co l10n` in our system) and receives something like:

 anaconda/
   af.po
   am.po
   anaconda.pot
   ...
 apacheconf/
   af.po
   ...

Also, our TODO should somewhere include automerge: each time a new POT file is
committed the PO files could be automatically updated (currently not supported
at i18n.r.c but is in the TODO list there too).

Finally, since we're at it, we should probably start making plans for
http://l10n.fedoraproject.org/. A *great* example is http://l10n.gnome.org/.
This is probably the only tool the L10N community needs (although the job can be
done locally too). Any help from the TurboGears experienced folks in
Infrastructure would be greatly appreciated. :)
