No. I cannot modify cvs.gnome.org. Someone at the Gnome translation
project would have to do that.

Coordination is required. You cannot simply start translating without
first checking.

The same coordination is required *within* a project: What if two
gnome translators simultaneously start a translation?

It might be the easier way, but not necessarily the better way. It
should be possible to define operational procedures and technical
measures to allow translators from both projects to contribute to some
software - if we, as the managers of these projects, are encouraging
such cooperation.

If you think this is a procedure that can be implemented: sure?
