Indeed I think the client and the libraries for Thousand Parsec are good
removal candidates:

According to http://www.thousandparsec.net/tp

* Upstream forum is down
* Last posts on the mailing lists date back to 2010
* No servers and players active

If tpclient-pywx is removed from Debian, then there is no reason to keep

https://packages.debian.org/src:libtpclient-py

and

https://packages.qa.debian.org/libt/libtpproto-py.html

either.

Markus
