Hi David,

Thanks for your email, thanks for pointing that the description is 
wrong, it does need to be updated indeed ;-)

We still ship it on the CD for gnome-sound-recorder, it's hard to 
estimate the number of users using it but judging by the bugs reports we 
got over the cycles it's quite some users, there is visibly a need for 
people out there to record audio in an easy way ;-)

The space use is very low, the deb takes 116k on i386 so it's probably 
not worth dropping it for now since I don't think we have anything else 
in the default installation that would let people do recording.
