IMO that would be more than enough power.I have not seen much po files that actually had all the help translated, but then again, its been awhile since i checked them all ;)
YUP, been a while since you checked ;) All texts that poEdit showed in my files were translated!
And here I just translated Drupal to Afrikaans and now all the help texts get updated. Bah! This will be a good time to figure out how to MAINTAIN an update. I have only started from scratch.
You can merge your translations against POT files from a later version and msgmerge will try to fit good matches to the new strings from the old ones.
I also have questions with regards to translating contributed modules. Where do we put them? Are these translations sent to the module developers directly?
They are put into a /po subdirectory. You need to create a POT file first using the phpextractor script. Mail me if you want one for specific contrib modules. Cheers, Gerhard
