No, I don't think there's value to keeping specs along which never
made a release. The point of the specs repo is to track things which
made the release.

It should be easy to re-propose the specs for inclusion in Kilo once
that opens up. You can grab a version of the repo before the removal
commit, pull out the spec, update it and re-propose it.
