Translation is straightforward without the use of any external tools
-- just replace "en" with the language of your choice, copy in the
English transcription, and start translating.
For transcription, a very open web-based effort, as Michael points

dotsub.com is user-friendly
and well-established, but deeply proprietary. But at this point, we
don't need transcription, just more translation. :-) So please forward

translations. We can then import them into any of the large
distribution channels.
