i think i misunderstood your remarks last time about whether gridflow 
should stay in the repository or not.
i was arguing, that it should stay, but was unaware, that the gridflow 
development is done in it's own repository (at gridflow.ca) anyhow.

my argumentation line was, that it is up to you, where you want to keep 
the repository and that puredata's sf repo would be a good place if you 
were looking for one.

now that i realize that gridflow has it's own repository anyhow, i would 
say that the import should be removed from the pd-svn.
instead it should be linked via svn:externals

i would say, go on and remove it.



nevertheless i noticed that the "inv*-icon.png" is still in the upstream 
repository. would you mind removing that too?
