Added translators list to WIKI

Hi all,

I have updated the https://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Translation page and
added the names of the translators and contributors for the CouchDB
translation team. A big thank you at this point! You rock!

Info for the people on the list: if you don't want to be listed there,
please drop me a note.

To all other readers. We are still hiring :-) Just drop a note here if you
want to join the translator team.

Cheers

Andy

If I may recommend, middle term, make sure you have a committer as
"responsible" translator, then he/she can also commit to svn and make life
easier for you. I like your idea of letting the responsible translator to
"upgrade" the new ones. Just dont ask me to add that many admins :-)

ASF is a very flat organisation, which I really like, but I believe
strongly its good to take a look at new people coming in so the
contributor/committer difference is something I have focus on.

I would not make the QA very formal, but merely use it as good practice,
and hence document it. Also remember it motivates to give people
responsibility, a lot more than making rules.

thanks a lot. Both ideas are good. At the moment we have an increasing
number of translators and I think it's not a bad idea to let them run for a
moment. Then we should think about "install" the position of QA. And also
think about to let new translators first suggest and then upgrade them to
submitters. Maybe the responsible translator for each language can then
decide to upgrade the new one ...

thanks a lot. Both ideas are good. At the moment we have an increasing
number of translators and I think it's not a bad idea to let them run for a
moment. Then we should think about "install" the position of QA. And also
think about to let new translators first suggest and then upgrade them to

HI. I am not in your contributorsgroup, so I cannot edit the wiki. but you
can write "danish,setup,reviewer" for me. I might find time around xmas to
do the translatation.

I read your doc. and I have a suggestion, let new people start doing
suggestions (like mail patches to the code), and then after some
suggestions "upgrade" them.

You should also think about translation QA. Ideally there should be a
person "responsible" for each language that reviews the work. A person
deeply involved in the details of the translation are likely to oversee
e.g. terminology, so having a second person just read the translation gives
a lot higher quality.
