Exactly. Please commit translation updates on "trunk". This won't change for 
the next few months. Only after that we might consider a separate 2.6 branch, 
but not now.

I've updated http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Translation_Status accordingly.

Also, as 2.6.0 is out the door, we are not in string freeze anymore. Just 
commit whatever you think you'd like to do. (Yes, I know this has some 
drawbacks as well, but a formal string freeze on the branch for the releases 
really only makes sense if we have two branches, so that the string-breaking 
patch can always go into the unstable branch. As we don't have a separate 
unstable branch at this point in time, all patches can go into "trunk".)
