Re: [libreoffice-l10n] string freeze has been broken in libreoffice-4-1

The translate-toolkit which I suppose is used in 
Pootle, is intelligent enough to migrate the 
content based on the combination of msgid and 
identifier (in msgcomment), but not intelligent 
to pass on the result as a 'sure thing', only as 
a fuzzy hit. You'd still have to go through the 
fuzzies manually and 'approve'. Still takes time 
but no big problem.

But when identifiers change, there is nothing 
sensible at all translate-toolkit might do, and 
you've got to work manually through lots of 
'best guesses', re-translating, sort of.
