Hello Jon,

This is a little bit of a dilemma now.

So, there is only one tree for packages. I normally take all packages from th=
e latest build and publish those. However, I do not manually delete packages =
because that rarely happens that we remove something. And if we do so, we nor=
mally remove something that is not used by anyone.

With nano, I could now just remove the package from the server, but then nobo=
dy who has not yet updated to the latest release can install it any more. If =
I leave it on the server, people can install it, and then uninstall it. After=
 that, they won=E2=80=99t have nano any more.

I would therefore like to leave it on the server for a little bit longer, bec=
ause although the second option has the disadvantage that people might uninst=
all it, they can simply re-install it again.

If we remove it in a couple of weeks, then that should be fine. People should=
 upgrade soon and we generally do not support older releases. However, the re=
lease is only a day ago, and we should give people a little time to upgrade :)
