From what I understood, this was not the case in Transifex 0.5, and it does have some abstract notion of "data sets" that can encompass more than one PO file for a particular module. In the same way, more than one PO file for a particular collection can be parsed for statistics. Am I correct about this? I thought I read this in the L10n Infrastructure team meeting notes too, and that the changes needed were not extraordinary. -- Paul W.
