Merging all these translations require some work. I've planned to use them for
hoary but I'll probably do some uploads this week. I think that's not an issue
to translation them correctly, they are easy to find in the UI so translators
have the context.

I'm not sure to understand the question but the language-packs allow to update
the translations whenever we want.

The idea is to use rosetta for the differents translation. Ie: putting the
gnome-panel translation from the package in rosetta (which includes the upstream
strings and the package changes) and update the language-packs with the rosetta
po files. So translators only have to update the po here. By the way for the
moment the language-pack updates from rosetta are not running, that's why this
bug is open.
