K nowadays has a large number of modules. Some of them may not anymore be in use by anybody and could be deleted. One example is peering module that I wrote in 2008 for a demo. I suspect that it has not been used since then.
Perhaps we could issue a list of suspects and if then, if no one objects, remove them from 5.2?

I haven't used peering at all, so I do not have any comment about its usage, but for at least one major version should be marked obsolete. You can add it as a note in the docs (at the top of the readme for the module, in the overview section) and if no one complains, then it can be removed in the next major release. I will list it as obsolete in the modules' docs index.
Cheers, Daniel

OK, will do that. But I doubt it is the only unused module in K. Perhaps we should poll users for modules they use and then list the rest as obsolete.
