+The Tor Project has been working over the past year to set up web-based

+We finally hit upon Pootle, and we have a fine web-based translation engine
685

686
+translates strings that are in the "po" format, and our website uses wml

+files. This project is about finding a way to convert our wml files into po
688
+strings and back, so they can be handled by Pootle.
