Hello everyone! Getting back to all developers regarding the aforementioned framework deprecation. We didn't deprecate those yet as we decided to give more time for porting those to newer frameworks. Right now a month has passed from the original announcement and we see that the count of applications using the old frameworks didn't really change much. We would still like to get rid of those as soon as possible.
We will be removing those for OTA-11. If your application is using one of the frameworks mentioned below, make sure to upgrade it before OTA-11 release (so in 4-5 weeks from now). rc-proposed will be getting the frameworks removed slightly earlier, as always. Once the frameworks are removed from stable, all the old dependent applications will stop working - so be sure to port them as soon as possible to the latest supported framework. Thank you!
