Apparently if you can garner enough intersest and get ahold of some raws and follow the rest of the guidelines as per this thread: http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=936 and then posting in this forum:http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=15 you can get a project started on baka-tsuki to translate this. tlwiki(a different group) did chapter 1 in 2010 and went inactive. Through baka-tsuki's structure many many volumes of light novels have been translated and do to its wiki structure, after translation anybody can improve the grammar and anything else allowing the translation to mature over time.

Edit:
I made a post on their forums, but since I'm a new user it has to be approved, I'll post a link to the thread and the poll when it happens.

I'd absolutely love to see the light novels translated. One of my friends linked me to that first chapter on TLWiki back when Jintai first started airing, and it was clearly a rough draft (or at least I hope it was; some of that wording was excruciatingly painful). I was really surprised that it was done back in 2010, since it obviously wasn't prominent at all outside of Japan until this year, but then if you realize what the bulk of Romeo Tanaka's work is, and the fact that TLWiki mostly translates games of the same genres (namely visual novels and eroge), it might make sense.

Anyway, yeah, the light novels deserve a translation.
