[Sugar-devel] Web activities and i10n

[Daniel Narvaez]

An alternative could be to combine webL10N and Jed

http://slexaxton.github.io/Jed/

Either adapt webL10N to use Jed or add the dom bits of webL10N to Jed. The
webL10N code is pretty simple, so it might easier then figuring out how to
setup the prop2po build bits.
