It will require a considerable amount of work. But the low-level
parts
are there: commit/push, integration with the Account System, controller
examples. It's a really nice project for anyone who'd like to dig
Turbogears a bit. Also, the foundation of Pootle (translate-toolkit)
could be used here as well, and a project like this could give us a
starting point for a workflow layer (translators, reviewers, etc).
Installing and extending Pootle (upstream, upstream, upstream!) seems
the Right Thing for now; some research should be made to see if
implementing "from scratch" would be more beneficial long-term.
These comments are a relief, I really don't want to see l10n technical
skills burned building another Pootle & Translate Toolkit if we can
avoid it.
Just some quick notes of activity we're working on:
* Optimisation work on the Translate Toolkit
* Pulling much functionality out of Pootle into the Toolkit (this is
essentially to allow us to move off of the currently unmaintained
jToolkit web framework onto something else).
There are a number of things we are looking into going forward including
workflow management.
Can I suggest perhaps a get together to exchange ideas with the Pootle
developers. Lets rather work together to create good l10n
infrastructure that isn't proprietary, doesn't burn our limited
programming resources, builds on what we have and helps build tools that
lower the barrier to entry for localisers.
