Hi all,


I've been submitting a few patch requests to the GitHub repository for 
OpenLayers, and would like to start removing deprecated features and 
simplifying some APIs - possibly also rebuilding the build system. However, the 
current GitHub master is targeting a 2.12 and thus needs to keep API stability. 
I think that we're long overdue for an API-breaking branch so that legacy code 
can be removed - stuff like MouseToolbar, which has been deprecated for four 
years, and Google Gears, which Google itself discontinued last year.


This would basically constitute starting a v3 branch and starting to fill a 
changelog of things that are removed. Hopefully the ability to have a fresh 
start in some areas and a lighter complete library with more focus will also 
bring in some new contributor energy.
