Hmm.. deprecated mean "Hey man, go change you portal as it will be removed in the future" is this you want to signal?
Yes :( The portal-fw is a nice portal framework, but the code is very very ugly (I know it 'cause I wrote it). The new portal block is (apart from tools) a 100% replacement which is even faster and consumes less memory. Deperecating does not mean removing and deprecating means that it is still supported. So if any bugs occur, we will fix them - but if you start a new project, you should use the new portal block; that's why I think we should deprecate the old one.
If one deprecates something it suggests a replacement. IIRC the new portal lacks some administration tools which the old one has (user admin, etc.), right?
So, what is your suggestion instead of using the old portal block than?
