Same problem for wikipedia. Your small team cannot keep up with 3rd party applications. In wikipedia we have the quality offensive.

you can also lock parts as you can lock pages.

you can enable comments as in the wiki discussion page

> 20 minutes of your translation on the fly would mean 1 hour of my time trying to correct your errors in consistency, etc.

Don't think so. the usual process would be not to adopt the patch and say "see this spec, improve and resubmit".

It is all about getting people involved.

Yes, and the new, improved and resubmitted version comes in one day after the release of the software resulting in an unfinished translation shipped with the application.
Not much different from the current situation :o)

Wiki is great for what it is meant for: instant publishing of articles.
With software, this is different, because the translation are not instantly published, but packaged with a certain release.
So if the translation is not 100% at release time, the application will be partially translated until the next release..
