 Yes, that's right, I used and I'm using xml2po. Cause, we wanted to
create an easy way to translate manuals and the only tool I know for
that is xml2po. That tool AFAIK works with XML only, that's way I did
that port and also we wanted to translate online, so the current
configuration is

 SGML -> XML -> POT -> WEBAPP -> PO_TRANSLATED -> XML_TRANSLATED

 AND from the XML_TRANSLATED we are able to (thanks to openjade)
generate the HTML files in +10 minutes
