Hi Christos,

you left the vinum entry with an obsolete comment in that list, which is IMHO
correct, but i was asking myself if the device numbers should also be left in that
list, so we see which was the old device number.

Which brings us to the question about recycling obsolete device numbers.
Should we do that or not and what is the downside if we do it?

I think we could recycle it at one point, which could be one or two major
releases after it was removed.
Hmm, do we also need to teach postinstall about this obsolete device numbers?
