 * Hi again,
 * Sorry for posting again, but I like your plugin so much…
 * Do you plan to use github (or anything else) to share your plugin to developpers/
   translators ?
 * Do you have a .pot file for translation ? I’m not very familiar with Gettext,
   but I think it’s better to use a .pot and compile it, then get both .po and .
   mo files… ? Am I right ?

 * No. WordPress uses SVN and the code is available there in all of it’s revisions.
   I plan to stick to that, first because I have to, second because I’m more used
   to SVN than to Git.
 * Still, WordPress mirror the SVN at GitGub automatically. My plugin is located
   at [https://github.com/wp-plugins/ultimate-fields](https://github.com/wp-plugins/ultimate-fields)
   so you can clone it, branch it and etc.

 * What I suggest:
    1. Copy uf-de_DE.po
    2. Rename it to uf-fr_FR.po
    3. Open it with PoEdit (free and available for most operating systems)
    4. Change the translations and save it. The .mo file is automatically generated.
    5. Upload it wherever it is convenient for you and I will add it to the SVN
 * Thanks for the desire to help, I really appreciate it. Hope this works for you.

 * I’ve seen all WP plugins were replicated on Github, but if I fork a plugin and
   push a modification, I’m not sure someone will pull it… because, as you said,
   it’s automatic…
 * About gettext, I did not know .mo file was automatically generated. So, I’ll 
   do it that way 🙂
