Hi Lucio,
I must say, that there were a lot of efforts to get our tools working as
easy as possible. Even a global login system was introduced way back so that
you don't need to create an account for wiki, for bugzilla, for forum, for
wiki, for the main website - you just create one. A lot of time was spent in
order to do this (every piece of software needed to be customised - Ge and
Klemens put a lot of their personal time into this).
I will answer between the lines below so it makes better sense.

If a contributor has SO small time that he can't even submit his work to a
bugzilla or, at least, send a patch to a relevant person (the same language
native speaker developer or another translator who has more time), then it's
better to wait when he/she has more free time to contribute.

That shows you really did not even slightly investigated how the website
works. And instead you're proposing a whole workflow for developers, so they
mandatory spent a few hours per week maintaining all the stuff you.
During that 2 years you should have spent just a bit of time, even 20
minutes, to overview our website and systems we have there, and another 20
minutes to read online manuals/help for them. Excuses like "I didn't have
time" hardly apply here.
