Thanks for taking a close look! I have reverted fr.po to your version (+ a 
message merge).

It does look like translation permissions were set more loose than I had 
intendend. I have now restricted access to "launchpad-translators". For some 
existing translators, this may mean that you will have to join that group, 
first (but if you're already doing your translations in launchpad, that should 
be a simple step). Sending translations to the list should continue to work.

I hope this will provide a decent level of quality control. At the very least 
it gives us an address to complain to, in case of similar problems.

True, this may have caused problems in other languages, too. But also, I see 
that other translators for other languages, who used to send their 
translations to the list, are actively working on their translations in 
launchpad, now. So reverting the commit, entirely, does not look like a good 
idea, either.

For the upcoming release, I guess the best I can do is to check, whether the 
translation was touched *after* I restricted the permissions, today. For  
translations which have not been looked at, afterwards, I will revert to the 
revision before the latest import. (Exceptions: Czech, Urkrainian, which have 
already been brought up-to-date by known translators on launchpad, and German, 
which I will check, myself, if in doubt).

Regards
Thomas
