Agreed. I always need to remove deprecated documentation for KMid releases. 
I'm preparing a new release today, and the following docbooks will be removed 
from the source tarball:
              
da/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook
de/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook
et/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook
fr/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook
it/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook
pt/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook
ru/docs/extragear-multimedia/kmid/index.docbook

Perhaps some of them have an up to date translation. For instance, 
pt/docmessages/extragear-multimedia/kmid.po appears to have received recent 
work, but the docbook file has not been regenerated.

Regards,
Pedro
