It happens when the .po file does not contains the name of the last
translator of it's not valid.

Rosetta is supposed to fill the .po header with that information
correctly set, but seems like we have a bug and it's not being set as it
should: https://launchpad.net/products/rosetta/+bug/5159

I hope it will be fixed with next production update next week.

Look at the update of that bug. The problem is that we require a .pot to
accept the tarball. I will update the code so we don't need it anymore.

Yes, that's the idea. If you register your CVS server on launchpad we
will do the sync and as soon as we start using the bazaar integration,
will see the updates from your CVS server.
