NONONONO!  The drivers that aren't updated WILL REMAIN in the tree.  There
is NO INTENTION of removing any functional drivers.  That said, the texmem
support, particularly the supprt to be added in the texmem-0-0-2 branch will
enable the support of a lot of (mostly) device independent features.
Drivers that don't get texmem updates will quick lag waaaay behind the
others.
