After seeing the pitiful state of the German localization, I propose a new feature:
Introduce an upload function on the I18N page (to tiki.org) to upload one's custom.php 'to tiki.org.
This will create the need of a target on tiki.org that keeps record of uploads, the Tiki versions and language settings the custom.php was created for, and (optionally) contact information or a tiki.org account name.
Intended purpose: Introduce new localization strings for new Tiki features into the language in question's language.php file faster than before, thus reducing the effective "age" of language.php delivered with new version releases. Users (admins) detecting untranslated parts would translate them locally and then share this information with the community.
That will create the need that a list of people is kept with proficiency in that language, because such uploads need to be peer reviewed before consolidating them into a language's language.php file. Important to prevent spam, abuse or illegal or copyrighted content or "edit wars" (groups of people constantly editing back and forth parts that they cannot agree on a translation. Wikipedia is an example of such edit wars...
