Looky here, a spec file with translations:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=mine_detector.git;a=blob;f=mine_detector.spec;h=294bcf4148789afb1ba7bb7b11971e231e001061;hb=master

Making lots of translators co-maintainers of all packages just to let them 
translate the spec files wouldn't scale of course, but there also exist 
translated package descriptions which do not originate from the spec files – 
even for packages without desktop files. At least some Swedish translations 
exist; I don't know about Italian. I can't tell you exactly how those 
translations are produced and distributed, but someone who works with 
translations presumably could.

OK, then I'm starting to understand what you want. You might want to find a 
better term for that than "application installer", as it apparently does a lot 
more than just install applications.

How much new server infrastructure do you think would be needed? Is a 
hierarchy of FTP mirrors with a round-trip time of a day or two satisfactory 
for distributing reviews and ratings?
