Yes this is all normal, translators cannot afford to work on and review 
translation updates on each developpement release. Given that these 
versions are likely to change, there's no real point in translating a 
sentence that would disappear at next release or change again and 	again.

As I remember, Gnome follows some "message freeze" period where 
developers cannot change any sentence, and translators can begin their 
work. Exceptions can be given, though.

Hopefully, Ubuntu 5.04 Will have a nice and all translated Gnome 2.10. :-)
