I would like to translate Invision Community into my language. Is it possible to download the default English version as a XML file (or any other format) so I can forward it to the translator?

Yes, from ACP > Customization > Languages which will download the modified text.

You may wish to look at and export the core_sys_lang_words table for all text descriptions.

The export in the software would only export translated words. Database will be able to get you all words.

I see. It would be useful to be able to get an export of all the strings straight from the software. I will see, if the database export is useful for the translator

Is there a list of the languages that are already available?

I exported the table core_sys_lang_words but it has many entries that are not really translatable keys. Things like forum descriptions, titles of pages, warn reasons etc.

Is there a way to get an XML file that would have all the default English translations as the custom values? This way I would just have those keys translated and import them back into the app.

Maybe you will get some help/inspiration from other translations available here:
