I would agree, for instance, that an auto-translation tool is needed. We should get one written. ISTM, every %-formatting string is directly translatable to an equivalent {}-formatting string. Why don't we start something in the sandbox and see how far we can get. If no one beats me to it I will add the directory some time today and we can start hashing out the solution there.
I've already started a converter. It's here: https://code.launchpad.net/~gutworth/+junk/mod2format
