I mean, why should a project maintainer needed then if anyone can just log-in and translate/ modify whatever he likes (like in a wiki)? Or isn't this meant to be like that? If so, only a supervisor should be required to check if people do translate and ban "bad" people. Instead, why not use e.g. poedit [4] to do locally what has to be done and update work on-line after a possible cross-checking from at least 2 people and push files to the translation manager (transifex)? Oh... maybe I miss the essence of all this.
