I am not sure if we always need to use a message Id. I know there are great 
discussions among the Linux i18n community.

Your thoughts ?

HEAD

I see no other ways than eye testing but I could be wrong.
I think the only way to test is to check that the template is not broken by 
rendering it through accessing it with a browser.
If Zope is started in debug mode, the pages are reloaded.

Further, I think that we have three languages available. Another way to 
test is to ask other people to add the translation for their language and 
that they also should check with eyes.

This would makes three eyeball pairs checks.

>how do we merge it into the current release ?

I do not think it is currently foreseen.
