I think we can consider a module too old to be worth translating if it has not touched by a maintainer in the last two years - if a module reaches this age, without even a tiny ".1 maintenance release" message in configure.in, I'd say it's safe to assume that it is practically dead and nobody would see our translations. If it gets a new maintainer, it can be re-added of course.
