Shahriar and all,

In different localization boot camps, we used Pootle [0] in LAN. So far it
worked fine. Currently we are running Pootle server [1] on test basis, in
long run which will be used for remote members. We will host important +
popular projects timely.

It will be better, if someone co-ordinate a small team for specific l10n
project. Let me know.

cheers,
-Jamil
