Indeed, I have taken a look (and registered myself): it looks very promising. Read also http://lwn.net/Articles/325311/ According to http://www.transifex.net/faq/#heading_toc_j_7 we just need to ask to become registered. Should we try? The beauty seems to be that the system sends updates upstream which was the key issue I have with pootle and others (imagine 16 persons contributing one sentence each to 7 different languages, it would become a merge hell for the translation manager). Dirty work should be done by the computer :) I may be all wrong, just interpreting web pages and such (and thanks to Milena for her detailed pootle comments!). Maybe http://open-tran.eu/ could be linked to transifex.net?
