Hi all Julien has opened two discussions on GitHub proposing to deprecate some of our modules, and it would be great to get feedback from the wider community before we move forward:
1) Deprecate the Selenium module? https://github.com/apache/stormcrawler/discussions/1994 Julien's rationale: the Playwright module does everything the Selenium one does and does it better. 2) Deprecate the HTTPClient protocol implementation https://github.com/apache/stormcrawler/discussions/1995 Julien's rationale: there is nothing the OkHttp-based implementation (OKHttpClient) doesn't do, and it does it better. Note that we would need to keep the HTTPClient dependency itself, as it is still required in various places. If you are using either the Selenium module or the HTTPClient protocol implementation in your crawls, or have any concerns about deprecating them, please chime in - either here on the list or directly in the GitHub discussions. Thanks, Richard
