    If it is possible, please change to another translating management
    method rather than current *mixed* with internal development.

    Under current situation, a translator must retrieve all the source from
    your CVS, which is not applicable to every translator. (And, such an
    operation is even not needed, only two .h files are used when generating
    .pot) Translators are just translators, they are not developers.

    Turning to Gnome Translation Project would be better. Even you want to
    serve the translation directly, you should just put out the POT directly
    with fully comments, like www.mandrakelinux.com/l10n/zh_CN.php3
