-* enabling the plugin with `po_translatable_pages` set to blacklist: **OK**
-* enabling the plugin with `po_translatable_pages` set to whitelist: **OK**
-* enabling the plugin without `po_translatable_pages` set: **OK**
-* disabling the plugin: **OK**

-### Changing the plugin config
+Jonas pointed out that one might want to control the order that links to
+other languages are listed, for various reasons. Currently, there is no
+order, as `po_slave_languages` is a hash. It would need to be converted
+to an array to support this. (If twere done, twere best done quickly.)

+po files in underlay
+--------------------

 
 

-### Creating/deleting/renaming pages
+I think this plugin doesn't yet allow po files to be present in an
+underlay to translate files also from the underlay.

 
 

-All cases of master/slave page creation/deletion/rename, both via RCS
-and via CGI, have been tested.
+In `istranslatablefile`, it specifically checks that
+the file is present in srcdir. 

 
 

-### Misc
+Problem with this is that it precludes using po to translate
+the basewiki (work which is well under way for Danish BTW),
+since the translated po files cannot really be used. --[[Joey]]

+Duplicate %links ?
+------------------

 
 

-Misc. bugs
-----------
+I notice code in the scan hook that seems to assume
+that %links will accumulate duplicate links for a page.
+That used to be so, but the bug was fixed. Does this mean
+that po might be replacing the only link on a page, in error?
