Hi,

A little over two years ago Stefan sent a message on the user list [1] 
about usage of the translated documentation. It only got a single response 
(from me).

The translation of the documentation is done using a Python2 script with a 
script that seems obsolete (xml2po, depending on an external library libxml 
that doesn't seem to exist in Python3). It is non-trivial to rewrite the 
script to Python3 using the available XML processing modules (etree, 
minidom, sax).

This script keeps us from migrating the build tool chain to Python3.

Since there seems to be limited interest in the translated documentation, 
I'm proposing:
- To drop translated documentation from the build scripts.
- To delete the translated docs from the repository: 
Languages/[langcode]/TortoiseDoc.po and doc/images/[langcode] comes to 
mind, possibly others.
- To remove the "Manual" translations from Transiffex
- To reorganise the website and move the translated manuals to a separate 
"translated manuals for older versions".

Anything else to be done?

Kind regards,
Daniel Sahlberg
