This looks like an interesting project.  There certainly appears to
be a wider range of languages and backgrounds than we have active
on the git list doing translation work.

As a maintainer it looks easy for me to use.  Email in a POT file,
rsync back the PO files a week or two later.  But they ask to be
the sole source for PO files for a package, for all languages,
and the translaters may or may not make git a priority.

I'm open to using it for git-gui.  What do the other translators
active on the list think?
