And it's here:

bzr branch lp:~ubuntu-l10n-hu/ubuntu-hu-web/tools

or

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-hu/ubuntu-hu-web/tools/files/14?file_id=gmirr-20080622173636-p80j7a6larff5mau-1

Grab it and test please. In theory, it should guess the correct language
code and then download the files under the gnome-2-26, gnome-{extras,
infrastructure, office} and fifth-toe categories, and sort them into
directories, divided by po/pot files and ui/doc files, like this:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/71904/.

You can also download the po files of older releases, as well as for
other languages in case you need it (you are using other locale than the
language you are translating to, the locale guessing failed or just for
fun :)).

And the whole process takes only about 1.5 minutes :).

Have fun
