==== Description: ====
This project consists of a set of applications and modules in python that
work together to form a solid localization infrastructure. In short, this
project aims to develop a CAT (Computer assisted translation) suite.
There are five modules in the project to reflect the main necessities in a
localization project:
* pmt - project management tools: Each project is described by a
configuration file: source and target languages, files to be translated, file
formats of the files, etc. A set of aplications read this configuration file
to create, update and merge the translatable data.
* tm - a translation memory engine: To reuse translation. At the moment it
use sqlite as database backend. The database keeps copy of translated entries
so they can be reuse in other projects 
* gmt - glossary management tools: To allow translators to manage their own
glossary. The database backend is sqlite.
* l10ndata - xliff related tools (and some basic support for po files). This
module contains filters to extract and merge the translatable data from
different file formats. It also contains a xliff parser, a po parser and
applications to use the translation memory.  
* commons - configuration files, resource files and other common
infrastructure.

The first prototype of the projects is being written in python. I would like
to rewrite some parts in C for perfomance. It uses sqlite as database
backend, GTK+ (pyGTK) and libglade to develop the graphical user interface.
Though there is a GUI, there is also a lot of emphasis in developing the core
functionalities in command line. 

I would like to provide the source code by e-mail.


==== Other Software Required: ====
The list of dependencies are:
* GTK+, libglade and pyGTK
* sqlite and pysqlite
* libxml2
All the dependencies are installed by default in many GNU/Linux systems
