 Would everyone be OK if I changed the description of 'old-locale' package
 to NOT say its deprecated?

 {{{
 This package provides the old locale library. For new code, the new locale
 library is recommended. [1]
 }}}

 As far as I know, no new-locale package exists or is in the process of
 existing. This description is very confusing give old-locale is the
 current locale package to use. e.g se this stack overflow question [2].
