Thank you for this submission, and thank you @alvarogois for #709. Now that I understand a bit more about the nuances of translations from wp.org, it will be my goal not to override translations provided through that process. Are the translations provided here, the same as those on wp.org? Because I cannot guarantee that the translations here will not be stomped from the translations on wp.org.

Hi @jtsternberg

The stable version of the strings of CMB2 isn't still available at the wp.org repository.

The translation we've pushed here will be exactly the same that will be at wp.org as soon as it's available. When I find an error or add new strings, I usually update it on both wp.org and github (if they exist on both).
For now, it's synced only with Development branch.

As this CMB2 case it's a bit different from other cases, as @alvarogois mentioned, the situation of having it bundled as a module, it's probably a good practice to keep the .po files also in github.
If you'll make the Stable translation set available on wp.org, you'll probably have to think on a way to sync it all, but you'll need translation editors on every language that CMB2 is translated.

It currently gets a little messy with 3 platforms, GitHub, wp.org and Transifex. It's a pain to choose wich one gets priority, or even per language.
