Changing English strings without losing translations

 

Dear l10n experts,
In the IRC meeting last friday, I expressed my concerns with the current state of English strings in OpenERP. A lot of strings should still be fixed or clarified, but we must try to keep the existing translations as much as possible. Does anyone have an idea of how we can change the English strings in the source code, and still keep most of the translations? GNU gettext has a feature called "fuzzy strings" to adresse this, but Launchpad doesn't support this and this is not top priority for them - see https://blueprints.launchpad.net/rosetta/+spec/rosetta-fuzzy-merge .
Any idea?
Yours,
Lionel.
