We decided to have different repositories because Adam think it is more 
convenient for his CI work and convinced me it will work fine ;)
As one repository for all translation file would create multiple issues, 
we decided to have dedicated repositories to store POT/PO.
Please read this page for more details:

The "fairly manual" process was a real issue in the past. We had a lot 
of translation that never been published :(
What Adam is working on is: automation.

So, we should have something like this:

English source -> POT files -> PO files -> translated source -> 
translated site


English source => Doc repository ==> (D)

POT files -> PO files => localization repository ==> (L)

translated source => "web" repository ==> (W)

When there is a change in (D), it will call a job, and update pot files 
in (L)
When there is a change in (L), translation platform will know and get 
updated
When there is a change in translation platform, it will update content 
in (L)
every day or night, content from (D) and (L) are used to generate 
content for (W), and publish it

To be open: I offered to run a test using my own server as translation 
platform with Weblate and this is a personal choice for the development 
purpose.
What we design is and should be translation platform agnostic.

We have to discuss between translators if we want to use Weblate as a 
real world test or Zanata for the coming weeks.
There is good and bad: Zanata will be stable but will require way more 
time for automation (I won't go into details here).
