Dropping 2 old domain names

Hi All!

As the old-timers here remember, AbiSource Inc., the founders of
Abiword, went belly-up in 1999. From then on this community took the
AbiWord project to a whole new level.

Somewhere in the previous decade we took over all the AbiWord related
domain names that where still owned by SourceGear, the parent company of
AbiSource Inc. They are currently in my name, since I've been paying for
them ever since (with love :).

We currently own the following names:

  abisource.com
  abisource.org
  abiword.com
  abiword.org
  abisuite.com
  abisuite.org

Now I was wondering if someone would object to us dropping the two
abisuite names. We never use them, and almost no-one links to them.
The only reason 2 reasons they exist is because 1) AbiSource Inc.
planned to create a while suite of applications (a word processor,
spreadsheet, presentation, etc), but they never had the change to start
hacking on it, and 2) Nostalgia :)

It would save me a few bucks a month. If someone else would like to own
them, that's fine too of course.

Cheers,
  Marc
