bst-artifact-server in BuildStream master still supports the ReferenceStorage service used by BuildStream 1.x clients as convenience to support 1.x and master clients with the same server. However, as our goal for 2.x is anyway to replace bst-artifact-server, maybe it's now time to drop this. Are there any objections to completely removing support for the ReferenceStorage service in bst- artifact-server master as part of the move towards the Remote Asset API (WIP MR !1978¹)?
