We did this because there were some projects that still used them for provisioning servers based on the WildFly technology stack. But I believe those cases are gone now, and in any case after three years IMHO it's time for those kinds of things to move on. Producing the legacy feature packs is a fair amount of work and is starting to interfere with how we'd best organize the code for production of the Galleon feature packs. So I'd like for WildFly 24 to be the last release where we produce them. Inputs on this are welcome. The maven GAs of the artifacts I'm talking about are: org.wildfly.core:wildfly-core-feature-pack org.wildfly:wildfly-servlet-feature-pack org.wildfly:wildfly-feature-pack

Also +1 to removal. One motivation was to compare the Galleon releases were the same as the legacy releases - we are now at the point that Galleon needs to be able to progress independently.

release would be more suitable.
