HI Kate, I've been talking with Translators without Borders. They have a
Translation community which will help on the Euro languages.  But, the
translation method below may not be accessible to non-techie helpers.

For those who already do translations, do you find this method easy to use?
How can we improve.

Some options - if there are a large number of translations that HOT needs,
maybe we could start using Transifex to build our language community
supporters? (We've doubled our translation at Ushahidi by moving to
Transifex.)  (free for groups like us)
