I'll try to have the encoding issue working soon. It would be a big step
for po4a, and it would enable a basic (but working) use of the XML module.
It would be very nice to get this (0.18?) release into sarge.
Yes, 0.18 will either be the one with a msgselect working, or a fixed
encoding stuff, whichever first feature comes first. I guess it'll be the
encoding one. msgselect is far less work, but my life is just crazzy for the
next month... 0.19 may be the other one, or maybe XML? It's still far away.
But we have to get 0.17.2 out before doing further big changes, IMHO.

I thought about it some time ago. It would be nice :)
Pasted into the TODO. That's what you should do when you're too lazy to do
something right now.

Hey, don't worry. I'm glad to do it. I'm on holydays until half september
(student life ;) and I want to do my best to help this good project. Also,
you're the mantainer, and it's good to have some guidelines on what are
the highest priority tasks :P
Cool, thanks. I'm post-doc now soon teachter, and if I have an advice, it
would be to enjoy the student life ;)
I'll try to have a look at the %entities; issues in header, and we may
release tomorrow. Huh, wait, I'll certainly have to introduce strings to fix
that. But since it's a bug which hurts you, Jordi, I guess that you won't
mind if I fix it anyway.
It may also happen that I don't find the time to chase that bug down and
that we release with it around ;)
Bye, Mt.
