That should be the appropriate link:
http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Translation_documentation

Every team is organizing itself, so I can only summarize the workflow of 
the german translation team.

Most of use have access to the SVN. So we can check-out the svn, 
translate and commit if we are finished. To avoid problems, we set up an 
wiki-page where we name the po-file we are currently working on.

New member of the team can only check-out anonymously, translate and 
send the translation to our mailing-list, where we proofread it. After 
some translation he is allowed to also request an svn-login.

As all of us are also working on the translation of mageia, maybe some 
infos about it.

Probably we will use Transifex there, I have had a quick look on it. 
It's very comfortable and easy to use. There are only some minor 
problems that have to be resolved.

As most of Mandriva translators are also Mageia translators, it would be 
great if both use an similar workflow (and more).
