I'm all for that, which shouldn't be surprising :) The rationale is that
we need to keep the scope and breadth of oe-core sane and manageable.
The emphasis should be on having lesser amount of high quality,
up-to-date recipes than vice versa.
That means a continuous lookout for possible things to remove. Qt4 is
one such thing, old GPLv2 software is another.
