And I've used them several times myself -- not just for other packages, but for a couple that I wrote, too. ;-) Basically, if they get removed from LFS, I still want to see the latest version tracked somewhere; whether that's BLFS or whatever doesn't really matter to me, as long as it's somewhere. And I don't think you were saying we should remove it completely, but I still want to make it clear: I do use the autotools. :-)
