Hi Jim,
I'm not convinced that anyone is actually using the ActiveX
functionality to embed other applications into LibreOffice, AFAICT no
one has mentioned it actually currently working. Nor has anyone said
they want to work on it.
Having said that I will go ahead with marking it deprecated but
In addition, everything thru Windows 10 currently supports ActiveX, and of
all the various versions of Windows still seen in the wild, Windows 8, 8.1,
and 10 account for only 23% of all OSes, and 26% of Windows OSes. Windows
7 accounts for 56%, and Windows XP comes in at #2 accounting for 11%.

But Bryan, Rick is pointing out that ActiveX usage is not limited to browsers
only. If its usage is deprecated then I assume there is a functionally
equivalent alternative but the *effective* life cycle of applications that use
ActiveX is almost certain to stretch past the start of LO 6.
