Hopefully that means you're liking the new way, of doing it in messages?

Ok.  I see what you mean.

It seems xml2pot doesn't seem to handle the <example> element, and hasn't 
split it up into separate messages.  I can't figure out why though, <example> 
contains perfectly normal <para> elements.

I can remove the <example> element for now, and it should get split up, but if 
anyone has already translated it, they're going to probably have to redo it.

A quick look through i18n shows that several teams have already translated it.  

However it gets fixed, whether changing the markup or (better) having xml2pot 
understand examples, it's going to break some translations.  

Opinions anyone?
