I will commit those changes.

Thank you!

The problem is, there is no such thing as one maintainer's own branch. 
The translations of a single website are put into one huge array 
containing all languages.
I know, some translators wouldn't have a problem with working inside 
that system (e.g. knowing how to handle conflicts in svn that might 
arise, when several people are working on the same files), but I also 
know, that we have quite some people being not as comfortable with svn 
so we decided to keep the actual commiting to a few people (aka Romain 
and me).

But you are right. It would be much easier if this wouldn't have to be 
handled by Romain and me (and it would take the middleman out of the 
equation who may or may not be available due to other things).

Web team is discussing other solutions for the website (including its 
translation), but until we reach another decision, we have to work 
with what we got.
Being in the comfortable position of being i18n leader and web 
substitute, I will of course look after the coming website solution 
being i18n friendly.
