But which OSM components does this cover? I'm assuming this only covers the main OSM website (and the wiki indirectly since MediaWiki is already in TranslateWiki) but not Potlatch, and the other editors.
It's only the website at the moment as Siebrand says. But it would be very nice to add other OpenStreetMap applications, the most obvious next step being Potlatch.
To add Potlatch some internal changes need to be done in Potlatch itself. I've filed a bug detailing what these are:
http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/2304
I don't think Richard minds this change to Potlatch but he'd rather not do the work since he's working on Potlatch 2. Changing this is easy even if you're not familiar with Potlatch, you just have to change all the calls to the iText(): remove the first parameter and split it ont a YAML file.
If you (or someone else) interested in seeing Potlatch on Translatewiki solving that bug is the first step towards doing that. The second one is hacking an importer/exporter for Potlatch's YAML format for Translatewiki. That's easy though, it's just a matter of reusing the existing YAML code without all the complexities we had to deal with for supporting applications using Rails' i18n framework.
