As I read through maw's excellent worksheet yesterday, I found some
packages of questionable value to the main distro so I thought I'd
propose some actions for those. Please let me know of any feedback.
Need volunteers for the testing section, speak up its easy to do!

Needs testing for review:
gaim-galago (does it work with pidgin?)
gnome-netstatus (does it work with NetworkManager at all?)

Move to GNOME:Community:
conglomerate (no new releases in 2.5 years, not installed by default)
gnomeicu/icu (is this widely used given we have pidgin?)
fyre (not installed by default)
gqview (yet another image viewer)
libghttp (nothing depends on this library)

Drop entirely:
glade (obsoleted by glade3)
gnopericus (obsoleted by orca?)

yes, orca obsoletes gnopernicus

metacity-themes (not sure this was ever used except internally)
libgnomeservice (nothing depends on this library)

this was part of the gnome-session rewrite, but it never got used at
all, not even upstream, where the SVN repo has seen no commits in a long
time, so this can be safely dropped
