 We're told that localizing the Skype app for MacOS is complex but achievable via [iLocalize](http://www.arizona-software.ch/ilocalize/). Again, Skype is hazy on details. If you have experience doing this and especially if you know a way of recycling the Windows .lang strings, let us know?

+Based on our limited information, we have so far ascertained the following:
+
+File are located in
+~~~
+/Applications/Skype.app/Contents/Resources
+~~~
+It is possible to copy (for example) de.lproj to cy.lproj - which works if your locale is cy_GB.
+
+However, there are some 85 files in that directory which would have to be handled individually on Transifex which would be a pain to work with. A possible option would be to merge them and then de-merge them.
+
+May be relevant that Transifex supports the Mac file format:
+http://docs.transifex.com/formats/apple-strings/
+
+Different projects use different formats, the Apple stuff appears to be in bplist00, Microsoft Office is in a binary format.
+
+Transifex only supports the .strings version, so this may still be something to consider for other projects. Mac does have a 'lbtool' utility to convert between formats, but it was of no use in producing a xliff file for Skype.
