Actually, they are versioned yet, at least one time per day:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openerp/openobject-addons/trunk/changes?filter_file_id=it.po-20091117044926-ugat9mztyvxz4ipl-1090

Moreover, the advantage of using rosetta is allowing users unable to
use bzr to translate anyway.

I think it could be done by translation reviewers:
