Doing some translation for an application of drupal, I've noticed that there are several variations on the string %buddylist. In some cases, it comes up at "%buddylist". In others, it can be found as "%buddy list". While our buddylist feature hasn't be completely implemented and put to use yet, I find it difficult to believe that the space in "%buddy list" would be recognized the same as "%buddylist" and would instead interpret as simply "%buddy", followed by the separate word "list".

Should the space be there?

Similarly, I question whether this string, "My %buddies' recent posts" will work correctly given the apostrophe at the end of "%buddies". The string appears elsewhere simply as "%buddies".

Thanks!

Title: Regarding localization strings... » replace @buddy list with @buddylist

I agree with you that there should be a more consistent naming convention. As the module is called buddylist, I think we should write @buddylist everywhere, which can be correctly translated too.
