I've contacted Michal Čihař who's responsible for the weblate
hosting solutions documented here: https://weblate.org/en/hosting/#self
Like we did for website, we could also get help from Weblate
developers to provide translation infrastructure to OSGeo projects
(translate.osgeo.org?). A contract of 500EUR/year would give us
initial installation (with LDAP support) and an upgrade every 6
months.
I'd love to have the option to move PostGIS translation from transifex
(discontinued from being open-source) to OSGeo-hosted Weblate (GPLv3+),
what would you think about it ?

Hello
Thanks for your interest in using Weblate.
The self-hosted packages are not limited in size (in the end it's using
your infrastructure), only in amount of support and upgrades you will
get. So it's really up to you how many projects you will host - you
will have access to the admin interface and manage projects on your
own.
As for LDAP authentication it's supported, I don't think there is easy
way to map LDAP groups to Weblate ones, what probably could be done is
limiting access to Weblate to certain group.
Best regards

Hi, I'm evaluating the cost of setting up a translation
service on osgeo.org infrastructure to serve all the
projects under the open source foundation umbrella.Is this something your "Minimal support for self hosted Weblate"
would allow or is it to be considered a setup for a single project ?You'd have close cooperation with admins, backend of choice
would probably be PostgreSQL and current frontend we use
is mostly Apache (but we could evaluate a dockerization or
VM just for the new service).Thank you for making a free software alternative to Transifex
alive !--strk;
