Sounds like you're pretty experienced. :)

If there is a problem with Thai support, please file a bug. Supporting
Thai, as well as all other languages, is very important to us. However,
we don't have any Thai developers so we need feedback from users like
you about how good the support is.

I wouldn't want to presume to choose something for you to translate, but
perhaps a system where it is easy to grab PO files from the web would be
something to consider.

Most of the things to be translated in Ubuntu are not Ubuntu-specific.
