If we miss it before 2.2 ships and is tagged, we no longer have the choice. The disk space is too great to ignore. Also, by "delete", I do *not* mean "destroy". I simply collect them into a tarball and move them out of the repository. If they are needed, we can simply recover them or reimport. Reimporting them is easy in any case, we just import the files that we need. Cheers, -Peter
