السلام عليكم
Actually, there are lot of things to fix to make translators active as they
contact the list. Arabeyes lacks a unified glossary, translation guidelines,
clearer documentation and QA. If this is fixed we can incha'allah consider
something like Pootle. But many here (نديم، إياك أعني، فاسمعي يا جارة :) )
thing that all these obstacles are a part of commitment. I don't agree
because Pootle has improved a lot and we can control the process as we want,
have a look at it.
