Corsican was last updated in 2006, so I am pretty confident noone else is working on it right now. You are very welcome to do the job :-)

The old file is available here (5 entries done, so basically nothing):

https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/vlc-trans/

The way to go is:
Create an account at transifex (not open source, but free to use) and request to join the Corsican team.

Here are some additional hints:

There also exists a mailing list dedicated to translation:
translators at videolan.org

I personally would suggest starting (and completing) smaller projects first, before going to the desktop version (with over 6000 entries). And: Don’t waste your time on vlmc, this is not going to be released any time soon.

Feel free to contact me or this mailing list with any questions
regarding translations.

Best regards

Christoph
