Doing a maintenance pass on SVN-Simple I found: - Its tests were disabled - Enabling tests results in failures ( which look to have been failing since 2009 ) - This package is gone on CPAN - There are no upstream releases since 2009 - There's no remaining repositories to track upstream - There are no reverse dependencies This is basically grounds for cleaning.
