I think they should be kept, some people still have a requirement to use
Apache (for example there's no good mod_perl alternative with nginx and
people may want to avoid running 2 separate web server programs).
But we should try to provide nginx information where possible.
(Somewhere on my to-do list is to try some of these files with apache2
and see if they work - but my to-do list is already too long ;-)
