[Caminol10n] Translating Camino and XCode requirements

Marcello thanks for your quick response. I will go ahead with my translation
then, install XCode 2.5 when possible and report back the situation. Seeing
that I only need Interface builder from the XCode package to adjust the
string positions, I think I could always manually open the files and edit
them later in XC 2.5 if iLocalize doesn't have an option to select which
XCode version to use. By then I will at least have a full ENG-SLO glossary
of translated strings which should help nonetheless.

Thanks again for your help.
"Tante grazie" and "Hvala lepa".
