I have been communicating with the developer of this package regarding
the time frame for integration of LP translations for launcher into
Jaunty. This work will occur this week, in time for Jaunty inclusion.

Please note:

Public/LP translations for the launcher were started initially by simply
uploading the pot file to LP. No po files were uploaded, yet po files do
exist for a large number of languages. This means there is now no
structured means of reviewing of LP translations, which unfortunately
means we have no idea what LP done translations actually are. But we do
have the existing po files that, while possibly imperfect, were done
initially by professional translators, and thus they have a presumed
high level of quality.

Therefore, I will merge current LP translations into the existing po
files in a manner that gives priority to existing translations this time
around. Unfortunately, any errors that may exist in existing
translations will continue to exist for the time being. However, the
plan for using Ubuntu Translators group to oversee this and other UNR
packages is forming and will be implemented soon, thus providing a
necessary degree of quality control for LP translations down the road
and opening up translations to the community.

So, if the pending merge results in your particular translations not
showing up in Jaunty, please be patient and use the soon-to-come
structured translation approach to suggest your translations again.

I apologize if this has created some confusion, but it derives from the
origins of this package (and other UNR packages) and a somewhat bumpy
transition to LP and full community engagement.
