We have been talking about using a hosted service to ease translations for a while. After a chat on Gitter, it is clear that the next step to move this along is to send an email to Weblate and request some free hosting. I've drafted up one that we can send to them here:

Dear Sir/Madam,

On behalf of tldr-pages, I'd like to request free Weblate hosting. tldr-pages is an open-source project dedicated to writing simplified and community-driven manual pages for command-line tools on multiple operating systems.

Our project has over 1,328 contributors and 30.1K stars on GitHub. As part of this project, we have recently added support for multiple languages. After doing so we have seen a huge growth in the number of dedicated members of the community contributing translations of tldr pages into 22 languages and counting!

Unfortunately, this has come with the unforeseen difficulty that managing all these translations is becoming quite a challenging task. How can we notify translators when the English page is edited? What about getting other community members to peer-review translations?

It is for this reason that we would like to request free Weblate hosting. By doing so, we hope to not only simplify the translation process for contributors, but also make it easier to manage translations as a whole.

Many Thanks,
Starbeamrainbowlabs (@sbrl)
tldr-pages organisation owner

Once everyone is in agreement as to the wording, I will send it to them (unless someone else would like to).
