[Qgis-community-team] Fwd: [Live-demo] Translation tools - Pootle

[Otto Dassau]

Hi,

I think Werner had a look at pootle during the hackfest in Poland. And I
remember that it looked like a good tool for the GUI (.po) files online
translations, but at that time not for documentation or manual pages. 

But maybe I am wrong and it has changed.

Regards
Otto
