translations of applications

[Simon Oosthoek <s.oosthoek@xs4all.nl>]

Hi all

I recently noticed that progress on translations in applications like 
gcompris or childsplay is miserably slow.
(my experience is limited to the dutch translations, but I dare to 
generalise in this case ;-)

As translating isn't something that should require programming skills, I 
wonder if there's some missing infrastructure to help "ordinary" parents 
to help translating these applications?

I wonder if there's a way to make this easier in general (not just for 
one or a few applications), is anyone aware of efforts to do this?

Cheers

Simon
