Javi,
Thanks for the offer of help.
We do have one manual process in the spreadsheet which I'd appreciate 
help with. It involves copying svn version numbers to the spreadsheet. 
(there is a script to help do this).
I'm looking for one or 2 people to take on the responsibility of running 
this script every day or 2, and copying the status across so that all 
translators can see their status progressing.
I've written up the process here: 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Translate#Update_status_sheet_version_numbers
It would be good to add a line to the above wiki page saying:
"As of December 2010, this process is being run every day or two by 
<insert name here> and <insert name 2>"

(Even better would be to work out a process to update the spreadsheet 
automatically, but I'm afraid my hacking skills don't extend that far)
