It looks like you're talking about AppData files themselves. They are
translated with the application that they belong to. There is no
collection of AppData files to translate separately. appstream-glib is
"just" a command line tool to manage AppStream/AppData files.

Personally, I prefer fedora.zanata over translate.zanata, as Zanata
doesn't have much of a permission system and everyone in a team is
allowed to translate anything into their language. fedora.zanata
allows us to control the quality of translation much easier. Also,
right now translate.zanata looks more like a dumping ground than a
managed, curated platform.

Ultimately, the decision of the translation platform belongs to the maintainer.
