What else is changing on the servers? Are you removing anything else? I
mean simply removing metaframe doesn't do much of anything. What exactly
are you cleaning up? Not a whole lot. If your upgrading versions or
removing/adding/updating applications, then maybe I can see your point but
if everything else is staying the same, then you really aren't doing
anything, IMHO.
