Please forward to the list.

I have set permissions to open since that (for the time being) will let all Launchpad users contribute instead of members of a dedicated team only. If that gives problems we could set to structured and let only people in the Launchpad-GNUmed-Team do the translations but for now I see no risk.

I have back in time told bazaar where to find the GNUmed CVS and periodically CVS is imported into bazaar.

I have not checked if the translations go missing when importing a template but that should be solvable by importing the template and checking a translated po file into CVS. This should get synced.

I believe they are not parsing the bazaar for po files per se but if you register a template they will try to find it and merge.

Can anyone try to change a string in CVS in say pt_BR.po in CVS and see if it turns up online ?

The safest way to associate CSV branches/releases with translations are to use the branch feature of bzr as well but for the time being one could download the translations for the main branch (== CVS head) once a release is tagged.

We will see how it works.

OK, good.

That explains some of that. Good.

It (bzr, or the translation service *from* bzr) cannot
import a template (gnumed.pot) because there IS NO template
in CVS.

I fully assume it would.

I did (as told by Jim) in the de.po file.

HEAD is fine for now.
