[Qgis-user] Should my QGIS 2 Plugins be removed from plugins.qgis.org?

My note on this is that, us it really an issue to keep them on the repo, 
other than general housekeeping? If it's due to file storage size, 
perhaps there's a case for it, however to remove them without at least 
archiving them, would possibly create potential issues down the line. I 
have many projects that are 10+ years old and I keep a version of 2.x 
running simply to allow myself to be able to load them without concern 
for loss. I'm an age where data storage is inexpensive and data plugins 
take much time, no matter how historical, I think keeping them is the 
better alternative.
