Hmm, I'm not sure those docs are up to date.

The thing to do is sign up for a free account at Transifex.com, then go
here:

https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/ckan/

and either apply to join the translation team for your language, or
apply to create a new language team for your language if there isn't one
already (both things can be done in the Transifex web interface). Once
accepted to a language team, start translating the CKAN 2.1 resource
using Transifex:

https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/ckan/resource/2-1/

We'll pull your translations into the upcoming CKAN 2.1 release.
