The way I am used to looking at product numbering you have V.R.M.x where 'V' is the version, 'R' is Release, 'M' is modification level and x is a minor change (usually not done). I believe the policy is deprecate in a modification level and remove 2 levels later. We'd be leaving things in a long time if we waited two versions.
Why are these blocks even in 2.2? They are excluded from the build but they are deprecated in 2.1 and have replacements.
Can they be removed?
It depends, the "politic" is: deprecate and 2 version later remove them.
They were deprecated in 2.1.5.1. To me, the policy means they can be removed in 2.1.7.
I don't recall what we said about changes across releases, but it seems reasonable to me that if they were deprecated in 2.1.5 that, at least at this point, they could be removed in 2.2.0.
I would probably leave them in in 2.1 series, but +1 for removing in 2.2. Time for a vote?
