As part of some spring cleaning, I'm removing two of the largest sections of 
unmaintained, undocumented, and mostly untested code in Twisted. These are 
twisted.manhole (not twisted.conch.manhole, which is over SSH/telnet; 
twisted.manhole is over PB) and twisted.spread.ui (a GTK interface + some other 
things that are similar in purpose, which also depends on twisted.manhole). 
They are both broken and not very useful in their current form; and any 
improvements would require an almost complete rewrite, meaning that there's 
little to no chance that they are worth keeping.

As per the compatibility policy, these two branches are available for you to 
test your applications with:

- https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8329 -- removing twisted.spread.ui
- https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8330 -- removing twisted.manhole

The git branches are available on the Trac links. They will be available for a 
week from now before the minimum merge time, as per the policy, for you to test 
your applications.
