Hi Ashar,
sure I'll do check trunk version of mediawiki for italian localization.

Just one clarification: since from mw 1.6 localization is put in
MessageXX.php and LanguageXX.php just calls the former file (am I
right?), I'd like to know how 1.5.* versions are update from an update
on trunk. I mean, if I patch trunk, (so for 1.7, maybe 1.6 with
backporting), will those modifications be reflected even in 1.5.*
future releases?

Thanks & Cheers,
Sandro
