Good :-)

You send a patch to patches@tortoisesvn.tigris.org (not dev@) and we'll
review and apply your patch if it's ok.

No, not absent. Our link on berlios.de probably points to nowhere and you
only didn't know where else to look :-)

download the official language dlls from here:
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=616

you can use our restext tool, downloadable here:
http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2371&release_id=5
349
It can extract from dlls to .pot files and replace ressources in dlls with
translations from .po files

when you run 'restext extract' against a russian tortoise dll, you'll get a
.pot file which can be used to translate *from* russian into any other. So
you can try to merge the English tortoise.pot and the Russian tortoise.pot
into a Tortoise_ru.po. There are some gettext tools (msgmerge, msghack, ...)
that can help you to achieve this, but no guarantee given. I haven't tried
this yet.

> - What's the right way to commit the translation?

send the .po file to patches@tortoisesvb.tigris.org. I'll run a few tests
against it and commit it when ok or report back if not.

> - how to get a (readonly) access to repo?

you already have it. Check out from:
http://svn.collab.net/repos/tortoisesvn/trunk

Cheers
