[HOT] LearnOSM - updates

[Kate Chapman]

Hi Althio,

That is the original aim of transifex, but there are projects that use it
to manage documentation translation as well. It is used for the InaSAFE
documentation for example(1). The upside to it is it is very easy to get
translators started and tracking of changes works well. The downside is
many people don't like doing the translations as individual strings.

Perhaps someone from HOT-id can mention their thoughts on this, since you
are the ones most familiar with the process.

Best,

-Kate
