You're free to do with it what you will, of course, but don't feel any
pressure to remove it or keep the repository clean or anything. I
just wanted to know which branches were under active development,
which were mergable early in the 1.7 cycle, and which were abandoned.
If you think that this branch will eventually make it's way back in to
trunk, feel free to leave it be.
