To stop people guessing around, I had a chat with compnerd on irc where |
| 35 |
he explained that sc-1.x was on the list because it already had a gtk2 |
| 36 |
successor so would be "safe" to remove, and that there wouldn't be any |
| 37 |
problem with keeping it if I wanted that. |
| 38 |
(But as I already considered removing it myself for a while I agreed |
| 39 |
that it's ok to go if it's done properly). |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |
| 47 |
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
