Initial Comment:
When confirming a subscribe request via the web, the
user is presented with two buttons:

- "Cancel my subscription request"
- "Subscribe to list %(listname)s"

The unfortunate thing is that this is translated as:

- "Annuler la requête d'abonnement"
- "Abonnement à la liste: %(listname)s"

which translates to:

- "Confirm my subscription request"
- "Subscribtion to list %(listname)s"

The correct translation is outlined in the patch. I
took the liberty of also removing the extra ":" that
was lying there. It is not in the english version, and
I don't see how it should be in the french one.

There is no patch attached, and (though my french isn't what
it used to be) I don't see how "Annuler la requête
d'abonnement" reads as 'confirm my submission request'.
Please contact the french translation team directly, if you
still think this needs fixing:
