@Sebastien Bacher (seb128)  Are you saying all or part of compiz has
been deprecated?

The only mention of compiz, cube or 3D in release notes for 11.04, 11.10
and 12.04 is in the release notes for 11.10 with this line under "New
Features/LENSES AND INTERFACE CHANGES"

"11.10 includes a new release of compiz and Unity. …" where compiz is a
link to http://www.compiz.org/.

The page at http://www.compiz.org/ states:

"Okay, this description isn’t really meaningful. In a nutshell, Compiz
is a compositing manager, which means that it enhances the overall user
interaction by adding fancy effects to your windows, from drop shadows
to awesome desktop effects like the Desktop Cube or the Expo view."

where Desktop Cube is a link to http://wiki.compiz.org/Plugins/Cube and
states:


"The Desktop Cube plugin is one of three choices for using multiple workspaces, 
along with Desktop Wall and Desktop Plane. Using the cube, four viewports (by 
default) form the side faces of the cube; the top and bottom are reserved for 
caps. It is part of Compiz, although several plugins in Compiz Fusion extend 
the functionality of the cube."

Also I clearly remember a picture of the cube with 3D windows promoting
Oneiric Ocelot, I believe on Ubuntu Software Center.

Attached is a screenshot of Ubuntu Software Center in 12.04 for Compiz
Settings Manager showing an view of CCSM with cube and rotate cube
selected.
