This is the same way that Fedora/Red Hat have done translations. There's
a metamodule called "translate" that contains the po/ directories for
all projects that need attention from translators. They also have some
kind of ACL set up that checks whether the person commiting has
permission to do changes to the language in question. Maybe someone from
Red Hat can chime in here with more info?
