This was done so that each translator (or team) could update the
translations whenever they like.  The number of updates is much larger
than for other runtime files, if the translation is actively being
worked on.

We can assume users will only get one of the packages and know where to
find it.  Putting them in a central place doesn't really help for that.

It should be possible to put them in github, but that's completely up to
the translator.
