I think that summarizes the current situation quite well. :-)
The current situation is very complex, so I wrote a tool
(tools/dev/po-merge.py) to help with the maintenance of the translations
on the branches. I think Erik will update the instructions in
TRANSLATION soon, but until he does, here's a quick summary of how it's
supposed to work. The most important thing is that the main translation
work should still be done on trunk. When updating a translation on a
branch, do the following:
1. Make locale-gnu-pot and locale-gnu-po-update on the branch.
2. Merge in the translated strings from trunk using e.g.:
* svn cat
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/subversion/po/sv.po | \
po-merge.py sv.po
3. Optionally translate strings that are not present on trunk.
4. Commit.
Since the tool is new, it would be great if you could try it out. I know
Peter Lundblad has used it with great success to update sv.po on the
1.1.x branch.
