Description Danilo Segan 2007-09-10 22:21:18 UTC 
Python's default encoding is ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1), and that's how xgettext extracts the strings.  You can set encoding on the source file using "-*- coding: utf-8 -*-" in the top comment (see http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/ for details).

You are using UTF-8 for the copyright symbol. This makes the translation hard to achieve with a message like:

#: ../src/lib/accerciser/about_dialog.py:52
msgid "accerciser Copyright © 2006, 2007 IBM Corporation (BSD)"


Note that we are in the string freeze atm, so don't just rush a fix in.
