Other translation software

This seems to be very similar: Rosetta is a Web-based system for translating open source software into any language.
Programing skills vs. language skills
Some people know human languages but are not able to do the technical part of application translation
Prototype
Here is a prototype showing how browser-based translation could work:
features
- edit all strings
- UTF-8
- download of changed language file
PSI Jabber Client
Webform

The webapplications source code
http://lamp2.fh-stpoelten.ac.at/~lbz/beispiele/ss2006/olpc/translate/site.phps (~40 lines) http://lamp2.fh-stpoelten.ac.at/~lbz/beispiele/ss2006/olpc/translate/trans.xslt (~65 lines)
PSI language packs
ToDo
- Version management
- Support for more languages
- Support for more applications
