As the former translation co-ordinator I am happy to see something else 
on this list. Normally there are only update notices from Jamie and 
myself regarding new webmin/usermin development versions to translate.
Obviously this list is somewhat dead and close to be closed down 
completely.

I remember the day when skolelinux mentioned they are using po-files for 
translation and as WTCO I thought this would be a good thing because 
the strings to translate are getting more and more. Using a GUI may 
would other folks getting on board here.

Then Emmanuel Saracco invented the wbmtranslator [1] which is a GUI 
within Webmin to translate stuff very easily and if I recall correctly 
the main problem on this item was, that the structures to use po-files 
(or something else) must be done within the software itself.

I have CCed Jamie Cameron on this item, because he is the main person to 
decide on techniques here. I think he can shed a light on this item 
better.
