Well, I already said the first one could be removed, so that leaves three to consider. To clarify the position: gmime: I can't imagine anyone using it gmime1: usage unknown, do people still use glib1.2 much? gmime2: stable branch of gmime gmime2.1: unstable branch of gmime So I'm not really opposed to removing gmime1, I just thought it was possible that someone would use it in favor of gmime2 because they haven't switched to glib2.0 yet. I don't personally care, though, after all I RFA-ed gmime once, but only got someone to put their name on gmime2 (so now Guus has it), not the older stuff... so if you drop my two versions, that just means less burden for me. As for the other two, Guus would know more...
