Comments and tips about translations

In the launchpad translation framework (which calibre uses), is it possible to some guidelines/style/recommendations text specific for each language? I try to keep the Spanish translation up to date every Friday, and I'd like to add some text explaining the conventions and preferred translations I use, so that everything remains consistent when others add/modify translations.

None that I know of. I've tried to get some form of communication going between the german translators when I was actively working on the translation, but that never took off.
