[Bf-committers] Remove Frameserver

[Juan Pablo Bouza]

I've never been able to use frameserver, mainly because I couldn't 
figure out how to use it, hehe, as I didn't find much documentation or 
support for it...



 I use Blender for all my video editing jobs and I would find 
frameserver really cool to use, specially because of the limited 
implementation of ffmpeg rendering options.

Currently I'm forced to render lossless images and then encoding them 
with ffmpeg or avidemux outside of Blender, so frame server would be 
really nice...



+1 for Peter
