Yes it is. I have seen some people on irc insist on using it though (once 
every couple of months someone pops up).

IIRC a year ago: forecasts was the most usable of them three, because it 
could be added to a shelf and could fit in a small area. But forecasts was 
prone to make e crash too.

eweather is supposed to work as a gadget on the desktop only. And it needs 
libeweather as a backend. Never seriously used it since it wouldn't go to a 
shelf (I like my desktop clear of all icons/gadgets).

 tiling is the old module. And it still works just fine.

e-tiling is the new one still being written and uses/requires composite to 
show some of the effects. Last time I used it (a month ago probably) it 
used to make windows disappear. So, I haven't used it since.

wlan - wth is that? can that be removed?

wlan just shows the wireless strength I think. Haven't used it or seen any 
need for it, since that information should be already available by whatever 
systray application (nm-applet, wicd, wpa_gui, connman, etc) you use.
