Agreed.

I assume they're also used for the UI translations?
Maybe we should move the 'Languages' folder into the 'docs' folder then?
Maybe something like this:
/trunk/resources
/trunk/resources/UI (former 'Languages')
/trunk/resources/docs
/trunk/resources/utils (contains the po-checker stuff)

Yes. But what's the difference of having it on the website (with no
links to it) than having it in the repository? It's 'visible' anyway...

It always depends: a folder in the repo root won't get tagged together
with the trunk. And many tools we use for the build depend on the
version to build.
