Can you add few words about
  - "prioritizing messages" using builtin gettext functions (or 
gettextlog.sf.net);
  - using LANG and LC_MESSAGES environment variables to change language 
of the program;
  - using locale, localedef commands to verify existing locale or define 
new;
  - using msmerge, msgcat utils to share translations;
  - validation of the translation file (comment at top of file, file 
header,  msgfmt -c -v -o /dev/null filename.po, ispell, etc.);
  - utilities for translators (KBabel, gTranslator, poEdit, po-mode.el 
for Emacs, maybe some web-utils).

(I just looked at TOC of my article in Ukrainan language).
