I'm not working on message translations.  Hotta-san is actively
working on the translations here:

https://github.com/hotta/pg-nls-ja


I was wondering a bit about how translations are maintained. Experience with another highly internationalised project years ago showed that many people who are willing to volunteer as translators are NOT willing to interact with git (or at the time, svn) and the other tools many of us take for granted. 

Can more be gained with user-friendly, probably web-based, translation tools to make translation updating more accessible?
