I'd leave the XML format out of this for the time being. We can export and import help texts using SQL dumps. If editing translations can be done using a web interface (either on your local host or directly on drupal.org), there is no need for editing XML files and no need for having to master CVS, patch and diff. Remind that I've been encouraging the documentation team to write static DocBook documents (i.e. XML + CVS + patches); they found it too complex. This won't be any different, would it? -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
