I guess won´t be hard for a translator to fit that in a phrase accordingly, like &FC-in, &FC-së, &FC-it (examples from sq), assuming tha we are not allowed to spell Fedora differently when a language requires it (again example from sq: Fedora, Fedoran, Fedoras,).

Hi all.
The Docs Project is thinking of substituting entities like "Fedora 7" in all documentation with "&FC;", so that these entities won't change with each upgrade. For example, now we have in the PO:
This paragraph is about Fedora.
The change will make this:
This paragraph is about &FED;.
Is there any language that would have a problem with this? One such problem would be languages which change nouns ("Fedora") in different types of sentences, for example:
- "This is Fedora"
- "These features of Fedora"
- "Burn Fedora on a CD"
In greek we've left these untranslated and we won't have a problem. What about other languages? Is everyone OK with this?
