 BuddyPress 1.8 is hoping to add automatic download of .mo files. As part
 of this, we need a way to figure out if the .mo on translate.wordpress.org
 is newer than the local copy.

 Some different implementation ideas that @markoheijnen and I discussed
 over Twitter:

 * Expose a "last changed" property in the API, e.g. /api/projects/wp/dev/
 * Add the "last changed" data to the HTTP headers when downloading The .mo
 file. This might let us use "Last-Modified" and "If-Modified-Since"
 headers when checking the file.
