Hi Yuri,
I downloaded all lang with svn and after step 2 I have une directory for
each pot. checking 2.pot I've seen that line :

# en/2/download_index.php +15
;Download Mageia 2 DVD, CD, LiveCD, network install ISO images.
Download Mageia 2 DVD, CD, LiveCD, network install ISO images.

is missing in the pot.

Another doubt.
Which order has the strings in pot? It should be like  lang only with
pot syntax?
