I'm glad you're raising this because I've been meaning get more visibility on a proposal I made in JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12987?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17203524#comment-17203524 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12987?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17203524#comment-17203524>Pertinent part:

Looking at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/Deprecations it appears we're moving 3 plugins. (1) DIH, (2) Velocity: a javadoc @deprecated tag could be added to VelocityResponseWriter (currently doesn't have an annotations), and (3) HDFS: HdfsDirectoryFactory could get a @deprecated tag and remove the @Deprecated annotation.
