I think that OFBiz should have a place to start its
internationalization in each language and its localization to each
country practices (like taxes, chart of accounts, etc) that is more
than just a translation.

Have a look at pages 140 & 141 (Translation Manager)
Producing Open Source Software (How to Run a Successful Free Software)
 http://producingoss.com/producingoss.pdf

It says that is a good practice to have a ML in the translation's team language.

It is very good to have a web site with a home page in the potential
user/developer language, where he can see the features, screenshots,
etc and catch his attention. It is good to have support in your
language. That is the way we are going with Manuel´s brand new
ofbiz.es I hope.
