Description

The following apis related to "required roles" should all be deprecated:

• Role
• RequiredRoles
• MembershipAttributes
• LossAction
• ResumptionAction
• RoleException
• RegionRoleException
• RegionAccessException
• RegionDistributionException
• CommitDistributionException
• RegionRoleListener

Methods on public APIs that use these interfaces will need to also be deprecated.
The corresponding attributes and elements in the cache xsd need to also be deprecated.

It is not clear to me what a customer using required roles can transition to. Will this be a hard removal of this functionality with no alternative?
