Andrew McIntyre commented on DERBY-1709:
----------------------------------------

So, I think the two main things remaining for this issue are marking the 
frameworks scripts in the tree as deprecated somehow and cleaning up references 
to the old scripts.

As far marking it deprecated, I thought that it might be best to have a 
DEPRECATED file at the top of the tree which could then be used for other 
purposes as well. The thing is, I'm not really sure what those other purposes 
would be.  Deprecation in public interfaces to the engine, server, client, and 
tools would be in the javadoc. Would we ever need to deprecate a demo? :-)

So, the second option I thought of was to have a file, 
frameworks.DEPRECATED(.txt), that describes the scripts as deprecated and 
explains the usage of the new scripts that corresponds to each old script. Less 
intrusive than having a big, glaring DEPRECATED file at the top of the tree 
that really only applies to a small part of the distribution that isn't core 
functionality.

So, I'm currently leaning toward the second option, and will put that together 
tonight (or in the next few days, anyway) if I don't hear any objections. 
Opinions on this part?

The 10.2.1.6 release page and release notes indicate that the frameworks are 
deprecated and may be removed in a future release. So that is taken care of.

That leaves the docs. Found the following remaining references to the 
frameworks scripts in the docs:

adminguide/tadminapps811302.dita
adminguide/tadminappschangingyourclasspath.dita
adminguide/tadmincbdjhhfd.dita
adminguide/tadminconfigshuttingdownthenetworkserver.dita
adminguide/tadminconfigsysteminformation.dita
devguide/cdevstart16043.dita
devguide/cdevstart813142.dita
tools/ttoolsij11815.dita
tuning/ctundepth14326.dita

and one in the code tree:

java/demo/simple/example.html

I will also take care of these shortly as well.
