If there is a gettext .po file or similar in subversion somewhere I could
imagine people would contribute translations.
On a related note: I created the current openstreetmap.de website which
lacks edit support. Does it make sense to integrate Potlatch into that
web page? Would it be hard to do? On the one hand I would like to make
it as easy and seemless as possible for German users. On the other hand
I don't want duplication of effort and multiple similar but different
web pages doing essentially the same thing.
