No, CVS does not support them.

The proposal is create a new module with all .po files using symlinks to
save space and sync tasks but the translators will see it as a separated
module when checkout it. It's a server side "magic".

I see several problems with this solution:

- Someone should maintain it with full CVS admin privileges (menthos is
the only translator I know that have such powers).
- We have a problem with branches names, some modules branch before
other so you cannot execute just: cvs co -r gnome-2-6
translations-modules because not all GNOME 2.6 modules are using that
branch, for example, someones are using HEAD other ones gnome-2.6 and
the fifth-toe modules use what they want without a standard. This is the
same problem we have if the CVSROOT/modules file lets you add file alias

All solutions we are talking here are possible, someones better than
other, but possible. But as I said, the easier one for me it's just a
script that automatically download the needed .po files and then just a
commit could upload all files.

Cheers.
