NO!
if we have a working pootle system for the ddtp, we will shutdown the
ddtp server.
Don't depend on this temp. system.
For pootle we need a Packages2po and a po2Translations script for the
daily work.
A Translation2po script to include the translated Packages in the
pootle system. But I can write some lines to generate the po files
with the translated descriptions from the database too.

This is right. The new apt download and use the Translation file.
