Yes but freezing is normally done as preparation for a release, and then a 
branching should normally take place, so that the hopefully fully translated 
files are kept one place and the new files are kept in trunk. If that does 
not happen I fail to see the prupose of having a freeze and an unfreeze. But 
maybe what you mean is that you just release whatever was translated on that 
specific date. The idea in having stable and trunk however was to solve this 
problem for the extragear modules, but maybe that is not yet in place.
