for it to go (into the attic). As for the others, not sure why they even exist! Many contain deleted files but why do the directories remain?
It's a shortcoming of CVS. You can't "cvs remove" a directory as you would a file. The only way to remove a directory from CVS is by hacking the repository directly.
Using the -P option for update/checkout (which you should do anyway) you can locally remove the empty directories but they'll still remain in the repository.
It is not a shortcoming actually. If those folders would not remain, there would be no place to store the archived files, which are not there anymore.
The only folder you mentioned which contains files is the functions folder, so it won't be removed by -P on update/checkout. I am unusre about what to do with it, it is supposed to be there to help people update the translations. It might not be needed anymore. I don't know.
