[Bf-docboard] git manual translations: could a tool like transifex work?

[marco ardito]

I was randomly thinking about blender manual translation, and just 
remembered my only short experience for another FOSS project with an 
online tool called transifex.

Since the FOSS project has an accont there, it is possible for anyone to 
edit that program's strings and messages in various languages.
The system shows % upto date for every language translated, shows you 
new strings or strings marked as bad tanslations to be checked,

and suddenly I thought if a similar tool could benefit the new blender 
manual. since it's in git, it could be suited to use with a similar 
tool, while the wiki one probably don't.

this way or similar could allow for translated manuals to reflect 
exactly the structure and pictures, probably, of the original base one, 
and people all around the world could perhaps concentrate juston the 
translating task, instead of rewrite and keep up to date a completely 
separated tranlsated manual from the original base one, as it is with 
the wiki now...

anyone has thoughts on this or similar tools for developer to check?
