We're already working on a solution but we have to balance elegance/ 
maintainability, complexity and practicality for the community/ 
translators.

For the latter point, I guess some i18n.php file, which is made  
available on Betawiki would be preferable. But from the code side, the  
obvious (easier) solution would be using gettext.

Note: The PDF generation code (mwlib and mwlib.rl) is almost  
completely separate from the Collection extension: It's Python code  
running on another server whose releases/commits are not necessarily  
synchronized with that of the extnesion etc. So sending messages from  
the extension to the render server could result in untranslated  
strings. But so does a less maintained gettext .po file :-)
