Seems like a very unnatural construction. We have translation projects for program messages, and the robot that handles .po files, but also translation projects for documentation, HOWTOs, man pages etc, where this robot would be fairly inappropriate. Probably some form of automation is possible, but as far as I know not realised today. For man page translations, see http://www.linuxdoc.org/docs.html#man and http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/index.html Currently there are translations for cs, da, de, es, fi, fr, it, ja, ko, nl, pl, pt_BR, ru.
