[asterisk-dev] [Code Review] Remove chan_usbradio and app_rpt.

[Steve Totaro]

Please allow me a few days to get this sorted out.

I know why it is not being maintained in the respository, part is
political, part is business motivated.

It goes against the grain of all that is Asterisk and I am in a position to
make a real issue of it in this "divergent" community.

I ask for a week to convince the maintainers that letting this happen is a
really bad idea, and it is, so the community will back me.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

One of the primary radio guys said in #asterisk-dev the other day that plenty of people use this stuff, but that fixes haven't been sent back up to this repo in years.  It seems harmful to have an out-of-date copy of this code here.
