Patches might be accepted here, as long as we do the moves in such a way
as to preserve history in CVS.
However, I have no idea how translations could be updated regularly; the
qa CVS repository is restricted to group qa, not the usual group webwml.
Somebody would have to figure out how to deal with the various
dynamically generated pages on qa.debian.org as well. To be honest, I
think it might be more trouble than it's worth, considering (as you say)
the expected audience.
