This is a useful package and should be provided.

Keep the package that provides Fons' 4-band parametric EQ, all other
EQs are anyway more or less useless. What filter is provided by this
package? However, even the more or less useless filters are much used
by many people.

>specimen

Sounds interesting, but I never used it.

>phat

What is this? Regarding a package search there is some photo thingy
with a similar name.

>If anyone feels any of those should be kept, please let us know.

Resume:

Keep jack-rack. I like jack-rack and consider that several people might
need it for old productions, even if they nowadays shouldn't use it
anymore. Btw. what could be used as a replacement?

If lv2fil shouldn't provide a good EQ, but a EQ that didn't crash, then
some people likely used it and need it for old productions.

Did anybody ever use specimen and/or phat? If not, then drop those
packages.
