How about this one:  Everything we have moved from the core to gborg so 
far has been a miserable failure.  The code is no longer maintained, or 
maintained by three different competing groups, the documentation has 
disappeared, the portability is no longer taken care of, and only the 
bravest souls even dare look at the stuff.  I think before you move 
anything more, you need to have a strong, convincing community on the 
receiving side rather than just kicking things out and hoping someone 
will pick it up.  Just because it can be built separately doesn't mean 
everything needs to be.
