Beagle is in the HEAD *section* of the translation status pages because
it is not part of the official GNOME release (i.e. not part of the
official GNOME Desktop & Development Platform release).

That section is named "HEAD" because modules in it are not part of the
official GNOME release, and are hence not tied to any particular GNOME
release.

I agree that that section is probably misnamed, as people constantly
confuse the name with module branches. If it helps, you can think of the
HEAD section as a place on the translation status pages where all non-
core stuff that is not part of the official GNOME release resides.
