I'm OK with removing the FreeRouting dialog and menu entry. I don't see
any compelling reason to keep it since we already have support for
Specctra dsn export and Specctra session import for users who wish to
continue using it. Is FreeRouting even supported any more? I thought
it hasn't been maintained for quite some time.

Wayne
