They stay around.  The existing terms of use already allowed making them 
available to other projects under different licenses.  We're asking 
people about this because we feel it's the right thing to do, but we 
don't see any actual conflict between the old terms and the new ones.

For people who don't look at any translations for that long, it's 
probably not worth it.  As far as we can see they would not be affected 
in any practical way.
