While I don't disagree with the change, it might have been nice to have
pre-announced the axeing first. Even with Alpha (which probably had more
support and which was discussed in person at BSDCan with a lot of developers)
having the removal not actually discussed on the lists at all resulted in
some bumps that could have been easily avoided with a bit more patience on my
part.
