Judging from a posting of to the German list for Ubuntu 
translators it's even worse: They have no idea of who is 
changing what, find it difficult to test their translations in 
the actual programs, don't see the source code, not mentioning 
context info. So this posting suggests to drop Rosetta entirely 
for Ubuntu translation and use gtranslator or emacs instead like 
their Dutch team already did (as it says).

For those who read German:
