Translation files should be downloaded from http://localize.drupal.org/ from now on. The idea is to remove the PO Template (.pot) file first, and then translators should remove their translations as they are imported into l.d.o.

Should we put a README.txt or something in the translations folder for translators so that they are aware of the situation and this issue?

I don't think we should add a README.txt to our module when it's the same message as every other module.

Perhaps 6 months after the release of 7.x-1.0 we should remove all translations.

Actually we should probably remove all translations because I'm not sure the effect on the Localization update module.

Remove all now? I'm fine with that too.

I spoke with Gábor about this on IRC with relation to Language icons. His idea was to remove the POT-file (as I've done) and let the translation teams themselves remove the .po's when the translations have been imported to l.d.o.

Also, please don't "fix" this until the translation files have actually been removed. The issue isn't about making a README.txt file. ;)

The Czech translation on all three branches is already all uploaded to l.d.o, so removing all cs.po files...

Just imported the 6.x-1.x Arabic (ar) translation. None of the other branches have it.
