Somehow my comment from the mailing list discussion got overlooked.
{code:java}
Volkan, I am fine with deleting those modules however that would require that
you make sure that you replace the existing Layouts with ones that use
JsonTemplateLayout templates, take the same configuration parameters and
produce the same results. In other words, when people move from 2.x to 3.x we
want to minimize the changes they have to make to their applications. All
existing configurations should continue to work. Custom Plugins should require
recompilation but nothing more. Hopefully that would cover 95% of our users.

To be clear, I will veto any commit that breaks backward compatibility for
"normal" users, either in the API or in configuration files.
