I believe so far a text editor was used to edit lts.conf.xml.

Would anyone mind if we allowed editing lts.conf.xml with a GUI
editor like xxe (http://xmlmind.com/xmleditor/download.shtml) instead?

This will introduce a big initial diff, as it automatically wraps
the lines on its own way, but other than that, the code it produces
is very clean and the diffs later on will be minimal.

The current lts.conf.xml saved with xxe:
http://people.ubuntu.com/~alkisg/tmp/lts-xxe.conf.xml


On a related note, could we edit the manpages as docbooks with xxe too,
and have a makefile use po4a to generate them in build time?
If that introduces an overhead, personally I wouldn't mind doing it
manually, i.e. to work with docbook/xxe and export/commit roff formatted
manpages in ltsp-trunk.

Also, generating .po files for lts.conf and for the manpages would allow
i18n, which should be welcomed by international users...
And I think it'd be a good idea to use a translations web framework like
https://translations.launchpad.net too, they make translations so much
easier...
E.g. https://translations.launchpad.net/epoptes/ has already been
translated in 29 languages even if it's a very new project.
