+Hi Zé,
+
+All the .po files are already present in Mageia's svn (see 
+http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft/ ). These have been cleaned for Mandriva -> 
+Mageia references already. You should use these files from Mageia's svn as 
+a basis for your translation work, not any files from Mandriva's svn.
+
+When you start translating using transifex, you can upload these files 
+there. For files which are already 100% properly translated, you don't 
+have to commit them back to Mageia's svn, only do this for files with 
+updated translations.
+
+One of the current issues with transifex though is that it strips 
+copyright and translation notices. This is a known issue. Should you have 
+any changed .po files to commit to the subversion repository, and if you 
+are able to, ensure original credits are left in place. If this is not 
+possible or too much trouble, we (i18n team, as discussed in the last 
+meeting) hope to come up with a workable solution to this issue in the 
+near future.
+
+I hope this clarifies.
+
+Sincerely,
+
+Remco
+
+PS. Transifex is meant as a tool to facilitate collaboration on 
+translation files. If you are the sole person working on this languages 
+translation, you may decide to use transifex as a medium which you only 
+push the updated files to, and don't commit anything to svn from it.
