Sure. I'm doing this i18n work for about 3 years now. And until now
every plugin had another challenge.

I think, that the cookbook page [1] has some good pointers. But you can
always make it better, sure.

Existing code is a great resource, yes, and there are commits/series of
commits, that show general patters for making a Trac plugin i18n-ready.
I.e. Simon recently did it for CustomFieldAdminPlugin [2].

For some corner-cases you may still want to call for help. I think, that
Jun Omae is on of the i18n gurus here. He contributed a lot of the
i18n-related code and plugins he maintains were among the first with
i18n-support. Christian, as I already know, is another good partner for
this kind of work.

Being not among the core developers I'm still trying to support
i18n-related work too as much as I can. I made the proposal to join Trac
plugin translation work [3]. The idea is to allow for standardized
translations with unified terms, and don't require translators to dig
through repositories to find existing catalogs.

Transifex software upgrades made me stumble for some months, but I'm
catching up now. And I'll include much more plugins, that got i18n-ready
lately.
