Locales of avelsieve plugin in squirrelmail locale repository

[Alexandros Vellis]

In the past I was planning to use the squirrelmail locales repository
to store the translations for avelsieve.

But in the meantime, I've decided to make avelsieve work also in
standalone mode, or even adapt it to other environments in the future.

This means that I should probably stay with the current situation,
which is keeping my locales together with avelsieve and not duplicate
this information elsewhere.

I leave it up to you to decide what to do with the avelsieve
translations that reside in squirrelmail locales repository. Personally
I vote for them being deleted, so as not to keep duplicate information
and not bother with keeping them in sync with my repository.

That's the current policy we decided on for the last few years.

This makes things more difficult to figure out...

Maybe Fredrik or someone else has an opinion.
