This is the friendly reminder that this thread is stalled. ;)

When going through the list myself I didn't see a clear cut-off-point
for things to include and things not to include. So?

It might be a goal to get rid of all of zope.app with respect to the
Zope Framework definition.

Hmm. There's only a single marker interface in that package.

Is this actually still needed? It looks like this pre-dates Python's
datetime module. There's also pytz around.

I feel like we might wanna keep it although we want to avoid
deferredimports.

We're talking about getting rid of deprecation so we might want to give
up the package too, once decided. ;)

I don't see a package that would be blindingly obvious to take away from
the remainder of the list.

Most of the following list I agree to exclude, except the ones I marked
up. Some I'm not sure about.
