Some man pages are (rather) complete, but most are not. If you want to
include it for a Lenny upload, I don't mind, but honestly this was not
intended. I just had some time on a flight and the pot file :-)) So do
not expect the next update before Lenny is released (well, hopefully
Lenny is not delayed that much). Squeeze, of course, is a different
matter.

Where do I get the password? (Sorry, so far I only used git, svn and
cvs from debian.org, so there might just be a missing info on my
side).

And is the cups head or will this branch be frozen after Lenny is
released?

Well, I don't intend to push, I just intend to pick up the latest
version, continue the translation until my allocated time slot runs
out, and provide you with the new version which you then introduce
into the VCS. This way all changes on the original man pages are
included as well.
