[Gimp-docs] Migration path to xml2po

Since Nickolay started to come up with another way of creating
documentation, I'm still interested in discussing it. Seems at least for
most of the authors an easier way to write documentation.

We already came to the conclusion, that including po file processing
assembles both worlds: writing new documentation in XML docbook and
providing translation by using *.po files if the authors really want it.

But, we need a reference which should probably be the
English part of the manual. Since this reference isn't finished in
writing, I want to ask Sally, Julien and other authors how much it would
be, to finish writing the missing pieces of the english manual. Are only
5 sections missing, or maybe 20? Can someone figure this out?

I think it would be wise to have everyone participate in finishing the
English part, even if he's not a native speaker. The native speakers are
probably be able to proof read those parts and fix the remaining errors.

Are there still any concerns or votes against an integration of the
"*.po strategy"?
