I would tend to agree, although this is probably not my call as
I'm not an end user of cluster3.  That being said, the package
looks to have had a peak of popularity in the 2015-2020 period
before dwindling[1], so we may not find very many end users in
the end.

I cc'ed the other currently recorded uploaders of cluster3 in
case they have matter for objection, but from what I gather from
Steffen (who's on the other side of the table we're seated at t
time) and from what I expect from Andreas, removal would be
okay.  Let's go with it?

> Have a nice day,

Likewise,  :)
