I'm back on cleaning up the Xhtml module (one year on...
oops) and add testing to it. I moved to the head of the CVS
tree, and got a surprise: does the XML module now strip all
comments from the source? It looks to me like it does, which
isn't good at all for me (my XHTML has got SSI statements,
which are embedded into comments).
I don't remember how the XML module was working.
I think the comments are removed since 0.22 (changelog entry: "Do not break
paragraphs on comments, just remove them.").
Another solution would be to remove the comments from the translated
string, but to keep them in a string or array, and to write them back in
the generated file during pushline (the Man module does this; it works,
but the comments may not be always placed at the exact same place).
BTW, there is now an IRC channel #po4a@freenode
(The mailing list is just fine; it is just to inform you).
Kind Regards,
