Heya, finally getting some time to explore on pootle.

How can one create new languages after logging in? I am trying to create
a Korean language translation and honestly can't find how to add this?
Do I have to be an admin. or have higher privileges to add future
languages, or do we have to top-load the translations we want?

I think we should allow users/translators to create their own new
language translation on demand, right?

I'm probably missing something, but maybe Nathan, you can shed some
light on...
