Everybody loses if languages are packaged with the bundle - the German 
user downloads about 3 MB of compressed translation classes when only 
250 KB are relevant to him. Same for the English, Danish, Japanese, 
Spanish, Czech, French, and all the others.

I'm not saying don't translate. I just say don't force *every* JOSM user 
to download *every* language which is what we currently do.
