(Note: I am CCing the other Administrators of our team, as well as the 
Ubuntu-Au mailing list)

I have no idea what this "ubuntu-l10n-en-us-fargo" group is, but I can assure 
you that our effort is genuine. 
https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-l10n-en-us-fargo/+members shows that 
somebody added us as a member to ubuntu-l10n-en-us-fargo only today.

Our translations can be found at 
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+lang/en_GB/

The Australian group, which is also also referenced on that page (and which I 
am also a member of), is also a real effort. Their translations are available 
at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+lang/en_AU/

Neither group have their translations linked from their pages. I have no idea 
how this can even be done. If you would care to enlighten me, I will do it as 
soon as possible.
