Subject: [Translate] Users for Pootle Server

I don't think any community engagement will be too successful with the 
current setup. It may be that the setup has worked very well for Apache 
so far but looking at the list of projects 
(http://projects.apache.org/indexes/alpha.html) I can't really see 
anything that looks like a project that has a localization effort 
comparable to OO (admittely, I did not check them *all*).

AOO seems to be quite different and has its own community history of 
localization if you will. Putting the two together the way they 
currently are feels very much like a square peg in a round hole.
