Hello.

Typically, the way we add translations is by asking that people gather a 
translation team of at least 2 people (because the book is big, and it's 
good to have people reviewing each others changes), and then produce some 
small piece of translated work and send it here to the mailing list.

At that point, you can be granted commit access to the svnbook repository.
