Remove:

Isn't rserv still on the hit list?

I am not sure anymore. Why would we move rserv and not dbmirror?

We should still be moving both, regardless of licensing ...

What got me confused is that Tom told the dbmirror maintainer that we
would move it _unless_ he had the license changed. Now that it is
changed, what do we do? In fact, the author said he didn't want to
change the lincense if it was going to be moved to gborg anyway.

I said that my vote would be to keep it in, if the license were BSD.
Marc's opinion is different, evidently. Any other votes out there?

As for rserv, my impression was that contrib/rserv is actively broken
with 7.3, because it hasn't been updated for schemas. (Can anyone
confirm or deny that?) If it doesn't work with 7.3 then that would
be a powerful reason to pull it out, IMHO.
