It seems to me that compendium.XX.po (when present) should be handled
like regular POs, but the reports should ignore fuzzy and absent
translations. WDYT?

I think more details are needed here.

It currently takes three input files, $article.pot
and $article.$lang.po from www, and $article.$lang.po from team's
repository, and merges them in team's working copy; the translations
are expected to be merged this way:

* all current translations in team's repository remain untouched;

* when the translation from www is complete while team's translation
  is fuzzy or absent, the complete translation propagates to team's
  working copy;

* new messages are added from the POT; obsolete are commented out,
  and so on.

* when the translations in www and www-$lang are both current and
  different, an inconsistency is reported (in the `report' target).

Can removing it from www-fr be a solution? is it essentially needed there?
