Description

Fix version could easily shift to 2.0 but this is to capture a series of JIRAs that are simply focused on removing dead or effectively dead code and or things which have limited maintenance and limited known usage. All such items could be re-introduced under cleaner and clearer requirements and need. Users tied to any particular item can share more about need and meanwhile they remain on the 1.x line.
