I never said it sounded minimal.

What I mean is, if the QtDeclarative team wants QtQuick1 to remain in 
the release, they _can_ define it as "done", which is not the same as 
"maintained", or abandoned for that matter.

It means they will not "maintain" it, in the sense of fixing bugs etc, 
but would need to ensure that it keeps compiling for each release, so it 
can be used. If that level of commitment cannot be made, I agree, it 
shouldn't be in the release.
