Hey again, Just a quick update on this, this is going somewhere, check the forum thread at http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=118978 and join the discussion there.
The idea would be to build a website that has a "translation memory" (==easy to re-use existing translations) that can be used for easily giving translation tasks to anyone interested. Yesterday I built a quick "prototype" of the user interface I had in mind, it's missing some things but the basic idea is there: http://viljo.wippiespace.com/xbmc/demo/demo.html I would really like to see some devs joining the development. It's gonna take forever if I'm the only one building it :) In the end we could even automated git pull requests of updated strings directly to core and those addons doing the addon development in github... A question to addon developers not in github: what would be good ways for you to integrate with this system, so that keeping the translations in sync is feasible? I'm really hoping if this is easy enough to use, we'll soon see users doing translations for all popular addons in all popular languages.
