Sophi and Olivier,
I'm referring to help content only. The changes that I'm making are cosmetic -
either removing grammatical errors ("allow to") or inserting articles. They
shouldn't need translating as I'm sure the translators have already corrected
this in their own languages.
I intend to change 8 files only. I have found a problem, though (see my latest
thread), and will wait for this to be cleared up before submitting anything.
Best regards,
Peter

I completely second Olivier here. If there is a possibility of scripting
to avoid the fuzzy tags on the target languages, then no problem.
Otherwise, like Olivier said, better to wait for an update or proceed
only with small volumes.
Cheers
