Once golang.org/cl/133355 is in, and #27205 is resolved, I don't think we need the zipfs package for godoc anymore.

As far as I know, it was created as a workaround for Google App Engine restrictions on number of files allowed in an app deployment.

Such a change would affect its users.

Do we have a policy to follow to removing non-internal subrepo packages? How do we decide when to do it? How to do it (perhaps deprecate first, remove after some pre-determined time; or something else)?

Can we move this to the subrepos? I use this package heavily in several products.

EDIT: higher-up in the subrepos, outside of the godoc tree, that is.
