Honestly I think that *all of these* should go. Twitter is the one where the number of useful posts is just so low that it's not worth bothering, but in general having these links in the website's footer might give people the expectation that libvirt developers are actively participating in those communities and offering support through them, which AFAIK is simply not the case.
