The first steps are outlined here: http://wppolyglots.wordpress.com/translators-handbook-draft/

A note: to fully enjoy the automated packaging and distribution of new versions and updates, I strongly recommend using this instance of GlotPress as the translation platform. Nothing against using locamotion, but just make sure to keep the files for packaging current.

  Fine, I’ll follow then your advice, and use GlotPressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation management software that powers Translate.WordPress.org. More information is available at glotpress.org.. I imagine it allows .po filesPO files PO files are human readable files which contain translations we use. These files are not used by WordPress itself. Each language will have its own PO file, for example, for French there would be a fr_FR.po file, for german there would be a de_DE.po, for British English there might be en_GB.po. import and export, right?.
  
  I can see that Aragonese is already at locales.php https://glotpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/locales/locales.php ($an)
  Then, I request the creation of a subversionSVN Apache Subversion (often abbreviated SVN, after its command name svn) is a software versioning and revision control system. Software developers use Subversion to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation. Its goal is to be a mostly compatible successor to the widely used Concurrent Versions System (CVS). WordPress core and the wordpress.org released code are all centrally managed through SVN. https://subversion.apache.org/. repositoryWordPress Localization Repository The WordPress Localization Repository at https://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/ is a Subversion repository where official WordPress translations are maintained. See Working with the Translation Repository for details., support for Aragonese, etc.
  
  WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ username of the administrator: juanpabl76 (my wordpress.org username, but my account in Glotpress is: juanpabl )
  Language code: an
  Language name, both the English and the native name: Aragonese, Aragonés
  No need for country name, as the language is only spoken in Spain (es).
  
  A Subversion repository: https://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/an/
  A rosettaRosetta The code name of the theme for the local WordPress sites (eg. bg.wordpress.org is a “Rosetta” site). All locale specific WordPress sites are referred to as “Rosetta sites.” The name was inspired from the ancient Rosetta Stone, which contained more or less the same text in three different languages. site: http://an.wordpress.org

  Thanks for you support!

    There is *no* ‘juanpabl76’ in WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/, although I see a ‘juanpabl’. Also I didn’t understand ‘my account in GlotpressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation management software that powers Translate.WordPress.org. More information is available at glotpress.org.’. Those accounts are tied to the WordPress.org accounts (remember that this P2p2 "p2" is the name of the theme that blogs at make.wordpress.org use (and o2 is the accompanying plugin). When asked to post something "on the p2" by a member of the Polyglots team, that usually means you're asked to post on the team blog https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/. has nothing to do with WordPress.COM translations)

      Sorry, I confounded both sites. My account at https://translate.wordpress.org/ is ‘juanpabl’. I think it is the one you need. Thanks!

        However, I cannot see Aragonese here: translate.wordpress.orgtranslate.wordpress.org The platform for contributing to the translation of WordPress core, themes and plugins./projects/wp/dev can you check it? Thanks!

        Hi again Zé, can I import a .po file with GlotPressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation management software that powers Translate.WordPress.org. More information is available at glotpress.org.? Or should I ask you or anyone else to do it?
        In our team, we apply machine translation (offline) to the .po file as a departing point, and mark all the machine translations as fuzzy. Then, we check online, one by one, all the translations, and do all the changes that are needed. So, I’d like to upload a .po file full of fuzzy translations, and begin woking on it online.

        You should be able to import a .po to GlotPressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation management software that powers Translate.WordPress.org. More information is available at glotpress.org. (you’re a validatorValidator See translation editor.). There’s a link on the footer of GlotPress.
