All in the subject.

Shouldn't this module be deprecated? I think std.typetuple/std.typecons and others replace it.

Changing to a Phobos bug. std.typelist should be nuked, I don't see anything unique about it that we don't already have in std.typetuple and other modules.

Hmm. std.typelist isn't on dlang.org anymore, and hasn't been as far as I can remember. Is it safe to outright delete it, or should we deprecate it first?

Just for reference / posterity: std.typelist was originally added in Sep 2009 (04216e8d29a4ff4674c9dd332b68962539c368a6). It was first referenced from another Phobos module in May 2010 (163bd6fe4d54a4042ad720f9d87f82d50c9fb14d) in a comment, which remains until this day. AFAICT, std.typelist was never included in any makefiles, so its documentation was never put on dlang.org. Because of this, I'm wondering if we should even bother with a full deprecation cycle... maybe it could just be disappeared in 2 months or something like that.
