Currently, if you modified translator-credits in Launchpad, that
modification will take precedence over anything which is later
imported from GNOME packages in Ubuntu.

Yes, this is wrong, and we'll fix this ASAP.

That's what we want to, and the solution we plan to do is to simply
add all contributors through Launchpad automatically to
translator-credits (and corresponding entries for KDE), and disallow
changing this string otherwise.

To look at how's that going, you can track bug 116.

Cheers,
Danilo
