I was thinking of taking a 2 steps approach: first silent warning in a

"down-size" the module just keeping the needed part.
That works for me.
In my opinion, the needed part would be, for the next releases, just the
read capability of (older?) binary format build in within LibO.
If we didn't currently have the capability to write them I definitely
wouldn't be in favour of adding it. But seeing as we already have the
capability of writing them, I wonder if we should retain it, on the
other hand, maybe this is the best route to take :-), drop support for
writing new ones and help prod the format into extinction.
Is there a "technical" steering committee for this kind of decision, where we
could propose / give reasons for thinking this or that?
There is alright, a phonecon typically once a week or so. maybe we can
put this topic on the agenda and you could dial in if its at a suitable
time.
