Web Translation tool

[Łukasz Wojniłowicz]

Hi Carl,

why not adapting what others already use instead of reinventing the
wheel?

Weblate (I don't know, I don't use it) might be bloated but your
solution will be as well after you add more features to it.

Who will maintain it? Nobody really maintains Lokalize already.

Cheers
Łukasz
