Yes, and we need to have both tasks be specific.

For the translation task, we need people who read the target language
well enough to verify that it's more or less sane -- not a machine
translation, essentially, but also that it's written (relatively)
correctly.

For working through it, we should probably focus on languages that we
have nothing for; it should be a complement to the 'document existing
resources' and 'convert existing resources' tasks. We can add further
tasks if we run out, but for now, we need to have roughly 50% of the
ideas we /think/ we will have for the whole programme for the start.
