Scaffold is gnome2 anjuta (They changed the name for "not so important"
reasons).
This can be a real cool project for somebody like me who wants to take
a dip into bonobo. But I know better than commit to this and make a
fool of myself :). Lemme see if I can manage my time and then maybe I
could do this. Anyway right now my laptop has got stolen so I am
without my tools :).

This sounds like history of my own work and some sort of learning using
that, what I meant was to use previous work on the same po file by
anybody (like from cvs) and only mark new strings as untranslated. I
should play with gtranslator a little before comenting on this though.
