  Description     : Tools for helping translation of documentation

 The goal po4a [po for anything] project is to ease translations (and more
 interstingly, the maintainance of translation) using gettext tools on areas
 where they were not expected like documentation.
 .
 This package contains the main libraries of po4a, and the following
 sub-modules:
 .
   - KernelHelp: The help messages associated with each kernel compilation
     option.
   - Man: Good old manual page format.
   - Pod: Perl documentation format.
   - Sgml: either debiandoc or docbook DTD.
 .
 Support for other formats like XML, HTML, TexInfo and WML is planned.

This package is comparable to po-debiandoc (which it replace) and poxml
(which can handle DocBook XML only).

Thanks, Mt.
