Tx duplicate teams removal

[Misha Shnurapet]

Hi.

This is to remind you that we've past the deadline (August 15th, 2011) by which all the language resources should have been synced by the L10N coordinators.

The docs translation period starts in two weeks on September 6th. We want also to make sure there is less confusion for new contributors about the groups to request their membership in.

I'd like to ask the project maintainers to remove the duplicate teams as listed below. Please note that some the four-letter teams need to stay on Transifex. The whole .PO stack has been backed up and made accessible via fedorapeople.org [1] just in case.

The following teams should be REMOVED:
  as_IN
  bg_BG
  bs_BA
  ca_ES
  cz_CZ
  da_DK
  de_DE
  el_GR
  fa_IR
  fi_FI
  fr_FR
  gu_IN
  he_IL
  hi_IN
  hr_HR
  hu_HU
  id_ID
  is_IS
  it_IT
  jp_JP
  kn_IN
  ko_KR
  lt_LT
  lv_LV
  ml_IN
  ms_MY
  nb_NO
  nl_NL
  or_IN
  pa_IN
  pl_PL
  ru_RU
  sr_RS
  sr_RS at latin
  sk_SK
  sv_SE
  ta_IN
  te_IN
  uk_UA
  vi_VN

The following teams are TO STAY in Transifex:
  bn_IN (is different from bn)
  zh_CN (as opposed to zh_TW and zh_HK)
