[Romain d'Alverny]

Hi,

first a big, huge thank you again for diving into this! It's really
great to see more people grasping this Web site. :)

Indeed. I did it too fast. The problem I used to have was, when doing so:

  _e('some string.');
  _h('again %s!', array('here'), 'h1');
  _e('some other string.');

To have no space after the dots.

Well, those two were quick attempts to grasp the topic. I can improve
the pa2lang.php script. As for extract2lang, I would suggest to use
Mozilla's tools instead as they are likely more mature.

Indeed. My very fault. I started the page draft but did not fix it in
time. Adding to my todo for August.

fr/thanks and en/for are relics. You can remove them. */faq too
(outdated, not maintained, to be replaced by something else).

Yes. Although en/migrate may be removed as well.

That's a relic piece too, not a language but Press Releases attempt.

As for the redirections, I'm working on a small dispatcher to handle
pages directly and avoid in the future to have to manually make
symlinks.
