I think we already de-facto have people responsible for a language(s). I 
believe they should know all other persons involved. For example, I can 
easily give you a list of translators to Ukrainian.

After we collect those lists, maybe, it's a good idea to put those under 
version control for a current DEV branch. After official release, wipe 
it out and start from the scratch.
