+ITS Tool allows you to translate your XML documents with PO files.
+ITS Tool is designed to make XML documents translatable through PO files by
+applying standard ITS rules, as well as extension rules specific to ITS Tool.
+ITS also provides an industry standard way for authors to override translation
+information in their documents, such as whether a particular element should be
+translated.
