Once we switch tomorrow it will make sense to let the l10n list know about the simplification in the product markdown and ask them to consider translating the product page.
Do you think that the English version should be updated first?

Yes having the 3 languages would be helpful. As far as there being
strings in the sdf file; All I can say is that historically the two
translation processes have been totally separate and I have no idea if
it is even feasible for the two too be merged. Hopefully someone more
knowledgeable with both processes can speak to that.

Exactly. Well, if we have English, French and German a l10n person can take their pick.
It comes to me also that some of what we want we should have strings for in the SDF files.

I am not sure that it really matters if the English version gets done
first or not. Do you see any benefit from having the English one updated
first? The only possible one that I see is if doesn't have a working
knowledgs of French thean having the english one to translate from might
be a good idea.
