Ok, if they really think so. I'd still claim logging into the site and
double clicking content to edit is easier, especially as you still
have version control and can have changelog by email.

But in any case, export -> xml-to-po -> edit -> po-to-xml -> import is
feasible with basically any CMS. Midgard even has a built-in XML
import/export system so this would be quite easy to script. The reason
why this hasn't been done so far is mainly because we haven't bought
the "better process" argument related to using PO.

But in any case, good that gnome.org is finally moving to a direction :-)

PS. I'll sign off the marketing list as soon as the dust from the
selection settles, so after that if anyone wants to ask or comment
anything about Midgard please use private mail or jabber.
