Hi,

I had a look at po/ and it doesn't look different than the rest of the
CVS files at Savannah :/

Files are created 444 _on the server_ but that's the way CVS set
permissions for all repositories.

Can you detail where you see them as read-only (client or server?),
and what major gried this causes with the new translation system?

Give me steps to reproduce your problem :)

Cheers,
