As author of the gettext import/export in the Language Editor, I would add
that I had no idea that the Language Editor was in the 3.7 release,
probably since I don't read every e-mail in the list (sorry, just too
much...). Did you contact Diego to get the lastest Language Editor
version?

In Small-Land image there's gettext import/export version that people has
used successfully to translate Squeak to Catalan.
