Unfortunately, this community is not founded on the concept of 'wiki'. It is founded on the concept of 'email'. That is were most discussions happen. So if you want to start a discussion (and your topic certainly seems relevant) I suspect you will get more participation if you keep it in the mailing list. So post a list of features that are apparently due for removal and ask "can I actually get rid of these" (or whatever you want to ask). and then base on the response, do something else, maybe a revised list, maybe a patch, maybe send it again in CAPITALS because nobody notice when it was in lower-case :-) Wiki's certainly have there place, but I don't think this is it.
