I don't feel strongly about this one way or another, but my general recollection about this from when I approved them in the first place was that it was the responsibility of the people who used the files to maintain them, and people who didn't use them could ignore them; we just committed them to make it more convenient for the the people who did use them.

Also, it seems like it would've been nice to at least copy Don on this bug to give him a chance to comment, seeing as how he added them in the first place.

I don't feel strongly about it either way. The original intent was to see if anyone was interested in using them as it helped me when hacking on the test framework. If I'm the only one using them then its fine to remove them from the repo.

I engaged him on his bug. :) https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91436#c21

Yeah he did, it was just got lost in my spam filter and the trigger was pulled by the time I noticed it.
