Hey, *moved to rock-dev* Afaik we only have: http://rock.opendfki.de/wiki/WikiStart/Standards/RG11 we have no deprecation mechanism for packages, and i don't have the time to implement it. The package was mentioned several times as deprecated therefore I (i myself) took this decision yes.
Since im doing currently the release i have to "spend" my time on this. If someone is willing to take over the releases i'm not cling on it.
