Well, it's not question of who for or against removal.

My point was that all packages that we have in MeeGo should have clear
owner/maintainer and clear understanding and description where this
package fits to architecture of MeeGo. So any addition or removal of
packages should go trough process of FEA# and reviewal of Business
people and Architects Forum to give a decision either this package
present or not present in MeeGo. It shouldn't be anarchy of adding or
removing  packages.
