Hello Aindriú Mac Giolla Eoin,

 > She asked me to help with translations and over the past while I have 
sent her a large number of translated strings (well over 10,000). Some 
of these were uploaded, but Charlotte has unfortunately gone quiet 
recently and the remaining files have not been committed.

10,000 strings is a lot of work on both sides (translator and 
committer), depends how Irish (ga) team works. In German team 
translations are first at proof reading stage. This takes time, also 
translations are sometimes need to be corrected and proof read again…
Also committing of translated files needs sometimes additional actions, 
because from start of translation till commit *.po files in SVN could be 
updated and translated files are then "outdated" => this requires manual 
merging → also a lot of work with 10,000 strings!

 > Would it be possible to: • send the files to someone for import into 
the repository

→ I think committing of translations in certain language should be done 
by someone understanding this language.

 > Would it be possible to: • obtain commit access for the Irish (ga) 
translation team so that I can maintain them directly?

There is a Wiki page for it:

Please note: There are some preconditions to be fulfilled.
