Hi,

I've read the article and it looks good. I've a question about the genrated templates for translators. By adding the semantic tags in the comment fields, I assume similar messages with the same context info still get merged with each other (and different semantic contexts split)?

Also I would suggest some hidden tag where you can provide more information for the manual.

When are you planning to commit this? Is the plan for KDE4.0?

I would suggest to add it as requirement for new apps (add it to the kdereview procedure) and let krazy report them, but to prevent a huge amount of issues, keep them out of the total issue count.

gr.

Toma
