Looks okay, if we can add some indications about the string (short
description, long description part X) then it will be okay for me. I
didn't see this format from the link Martijn gave me, maybe I missed
something.

If I can submit po files directly, then it would be great, or you can
point me to some script that converts from po to our "traditional"
format, then I can feed the translations to email interface.
