=== Pology integration into Lokalize ===
'''Brief explanation:''' 
[http://techbase.kde.org/Localization/Tools/Pology Pology] integration into [http://userbase.kde.org/Lokalize Lokalize] so [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quality_assessment QA] tools are directly available from within the UI.

'''Expected results:'''
* Lokalize is expected to act as a pology client
* QA analysis should be accesible from within the project tab and when switching between translation units
* Any file accessed by pology's scripts or hooks should be modifiable by the user at any time.
* Specialised dictionary management through a built in Lokalize menu
* Spell check-in uses specialised dictionaries on the fly
* Translator tips on hook behaviour(#|, no-check-spell e # well-spelled:) edition from within file edition window
* check-rules hook can be configured and called from either the project tab or from the unit translation panel, by request or on the fly. Show "# skip-rule:" option when running live.
* Grammar check-in through check-grammar hook.
* Agárdase que o usuario poida aplicar a comprobación de validez segundo os criterios do proxecto (vale, na actualidade só hai para kde e para o wesnoth).

'''Knowledge prerequisites:'''
* KDE development stack (Qt/C++ and git)
