there are a lot of translations open from <-> to languages which are rare. But sometimes there is the source- or the goal-language one of them you knows.
I think it should be to set up a "transit-language" without subtraction of points if request e.g. is older than a month. When someone set-up an "transit-language" the requestor would be asked, if he accept the setup. If accepted by requestor, the points will be substracted from his account and the person, who's setted up the inter-language-request shall receive an info and do this translation. Timeout for this: e.g. one week...

That's an interestig idea. As you describe it, it's a little bit difficult to implement. What is dificult to implement is "the requestor would be asked". Maybe cucumis could automatically add english as a transit language after 1 or 2 months. The points would be taken from the cucumis account. I'm not sure yet but I will think about it.

That's also an good idea!
I only thought about, how it could be to do, that some translations will not "go under" ;-)
