Hi,

logilab-common contains a number of modules that are neither tested nor
seemingly used in any of Logilab's current projects.

With the source layout changes coming in the next release, we thought it
was time to look at trimming some of those unused modules and call the
next version 1.0.  Before doing that, though, we thought we'd let people
chime in if they had a particular attachment to any of the modules on
the prospective kill list.

As of now, this list includes:

- logilab.common.cli - Command line interface helper classes

- logilab.common.contexts - functionality moved to shellutils 5 years
  ago

- logilab.common.corbautils - A set of utility function to ease the use
  of OmniORBpy

- logilab.common.dbf - DBF reader which reads Visual Fox Pro DBF format
  with Memo field

- logilab.common.pyro_ext - Python Remote Object utilities

- logilab.common.xmlrpcutils - XML-RPC utilities

- logilab.common.__pkginfo__ - packaging metadata, should use
  pkg_resources nowadays

Cheers,
Julien
