Right now we have only good translation server for core :) but not for 
the extensions.

If the translation server in its current state has to be used as 
translation system for extensions there will be need for llxml 
modification (consider extremly huge dropdown list of language files for 
2000+ extensions).

Besides I think that translators of the core should be rather a group of 
trusted people - you may call them "core translators". Translators of 
extensions could be done be everyone - there should be no real problem 
to get password for extension translation.

So it would be resonable to have 2 different translation servers. One 
for core files and almost core extensions (tv,dam, etc) and the second 
for extension translation (with modified version of llxml). And of 
course different users/translators/passwords for each server. Or better 
to have the translation servers login integrated with typo3.org login.

Then it all has to be integrated with "Translation handling" in 
Extension Manager.

So I think there is more work than just one day :)

BTW. Your suggestion to create list of translators is great. Right now 
people have to post here to offer their help. Their question should be 
emailed directly to "core translators".
