What about writing xml parser extension for Transifex? I guess better then convert to pot then translate the convert it again to xml.

If we convert, we don't need any modifications in transifex. It's safer that way, we can be sure that when transifex is updated, the thing still works. I don't see any gains in writing a "native" parser for xbmc strings.

I'd also say converting is easier, too, as it can "just be done", no need to study transifex internals.
