hmmm till now all the changes to WP 1.5 were essential for
localization, not getexted strings, difference between the pot string
and the one in the code etc. I always considered this only for 1.5.1
version and I supposed that the various locale version that  will be
put onlin in official ways was aimed to 1.5.1 version.

FOr it_IT we actually have available to public on the devoted site
(www.wordpress-it.it) only the .mo files, maked as a beta version.

We didn't realese any WP modified files nether the readme.html tha's
not a "core" file.

For our point of view we practically don't care for 1.5 transalted,
people can use the .mo file accepting to have some text untraslated.
For people that want a full translated verion there will be the 1.5.1
package.

I put online files of WP modified like update.php that has the error
message on die translated, but i conseider it a 1.5.1 release.

Maybe we could create a 1.5 brach and let single locales that have
activity on 1.5 can move theyr files there, for other like us we will
continue to keep files and stuff on the main trunk, so any name and
tags for 1.5 will be ok for us. :)
