In addition to that, Launchpad has got a very cool feature called "message sharing". This means that the translations you do in an Ubuntu release will automatically propagate to all others. This happens instantly, and it effectively means that if you are translating Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty), all previous versions present in Launchpad [1] will be translated as well (*). If you've got more questions, feel free to ask! Regards, David.
