[opensuse-factory] dropping packages (was: Re: RealPlayer dropped from openSUSE, why?)

Hi, Stephan Kulow schrieb:

Dropping packages (from distro and from DVD) is our daily business. RealPlayer might be different - but I have no idea in what way.

RealPlayer is not really different but it shows once again that the process of dropping packages from the distribution is not transparent enough to the community. Usually package drops are not really announced in public and one has to stumble about it and then starts the discussion about the why. I know that the reasons for dropping packages are recorded internally but why isn't that public accessible data?
