Hi everyone,

In 0.9.1 we deprecated "services" (aka categories) and related functionality 
(widget default types etc) as these are more properly the concern of a widget 
store (such as the Apache Rave widget repository, or the widget store that will 
be developed by a group of projects at http://code.google.com/p/widgetstore/ )

The question I have is when should we actually *remove* the deprecated code?

Personally I think 0.9.1 is quite a solid release, QA-wise, and so anyone who 
needs some sort of services support could stay on 0.9.1 until they are ready. 
In which case we can remove the code now ready for 0.9.2. 

However, there isn't going to be a long gap before we release 0.9.2 as the 
major new additions (templating system, oAuth) are already in place and ready 
to test.

What do you think? Is anyone using the services feature or relying on it for 
integration with other platforms?

PS: I've had a quick look, and removing services will eliminate ~16 source 
files and around 800 lines of code...
