*REMOVALS*

Freemarker and Arquillian jobs have been disabled and their builds have been removed from the composite and aggregate sites. Their connectors have been removed from Central. As a result, the Early Access site [1] is now empty. Their repos have been tagged with "deprecated" and "deprecated-repo" tags, and their README.md files have been updated to note that these projects were removed from JBoss Tools as of 4.5.3.

*DEPRECATIONS*

Portlet, Aerogear, Browsersim, and Livereload have been marked deprecated, and I've added deprecated tags to their github repos too:

https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-portlet/blob/master/README.md (not currently being built so just marked the README.md file)
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-aerogear/commit/f1cbb77b02e69ce0003a3d9781e98f56f7dbeaaf
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-browsersim/commit/c9154552caf1fc9bee45b028907715bb19ce1663
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-livereload/commit/cba8d71ef2e82313dc11234d0368355c717044e6
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-central/commit/49444d205799c4059088b9049fc1aa213ea4c186

They all exist already in Central, but those connectors are now deprecated too.

https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-discovery/commit/acf86dcb6f5e01dfd6fbbc65c2fb4ffd11969af6

Note that the connector called "JBoss Hybrid Mobile Tools + CordovaSim" includes Aerogear, Browsersim, and Livereload. There's also a connector for LiveReload by itself, another for Portlet, and a 4th for Maven support for Portlets. I've marked all 4 deprecated.

I have *NOT* created new connectors solely for *Aerogear* and *Browsersim*. I can do so if requested but figure what we have already is good enough. 

Would you agree [~rpdavis] [~jeffmaury] [~gercan] [~ibuziuk] ?
