I see the same thing happening to LDAP.  For the most part it has
been ignored.  If it is considered to be unstable at this point, why not
put it in /experimental with the other modules that are considered to be
"not yet ready for prime-time" but still very useful?  In this way, it
will get the exposure that it needs, documentation can continue (BTW
where did the docs go??) and when it is stable, it can be moved into the
mainstream.

When proxy was a subproject, it received no exposure, which was 
detrimental to the project as a whole. Bugs were only fixed when proxy

went mainstream again. Subprojects mean more work for end-users, and 
avoiding end-user work is better than avoiding developer work.
