we don't need PO files for this.

We have it allready...

See http://ddtp.debian.net/ddtss/index.cgi/es, and go to the 
'suggestions' Part. All this translations are from rosetta and are not 
in the ddtp and waiting for the review.

rosetta send this translation to the ddtss and ddtss use this as 
suggestions...

Thanks
