My plan is to remove the files above before the next release.
Also, most of br-con.boot, large part of ht-util.boot and
about 1/3 of br-data.boot should be removed. Together this
is about 5000 lines of Boot code to remove. Other removals
are possible, but I think it is better to replace the above
by Spad code relatively quickly, then to delay replacement
or relase waiting for bigger change.
Some replacement parts are already in the trunk, but one big
part (single package having 2800 lines) still needs work.
As of today diff between my private version where HyperDoc
uses new code and trunk is 275 kB. Biggest single part
is the package that I mentioned above (126 kB), removals
take some tens of kilobytes, I also need extensive changes
in htsetvar.boot and in remaining part of ht-util.boot.
At peak diff between my private version and the trunk
were about 500 kB, but during last two months diff is
going down.
