By the way, in order to preach by example I just moved 54 of my perl
packages from community to unsupported. They all had low usage and were not
dependencies. I had to keep some others with few votes because they are
needed by pkgs maintained by sergej ;)

To make the cleanup operation easier I wrote this little script:

I'd just like to remind people that moving from community erases all
package metadata entirely -- there's no real move operation. If your
package has a lot of important votes/comments, I would consider
waiting until we come to some backend changes which allow easier
moving. Louipc is working on this at the moment, so hopefully it
shouldn't be too long.

In the cases of the packages I moved yesterday, they all had 1 or 2 votes and no comments. So there's no loss. But of course I will welcome the addition of a real backend script which moves packages properly from community (or extra) to unsupported.
