Actually, it wasn't.
We *did* reach a consensus that isdn4linux is not obsolete in the accepted sense of the word, because there is no replacement for it so far.
OTOH I have since submitted (twice, in fact) a patch that would remove the "(obsolete)" label from the Kconfig entry, but somehow nothing ever became of it. My submissions just linger in LKML, uncommented and unmerged.
To sum it up, we agree that the "(obsolete)" label is wrong, but we won't remove it. I have no idea how to resolve that situation.
What I do know is that it would be very wrong to remove isdn4linux, because it has an existing userbase with nowhere else to go.
