# Removed Features and Modules
|
||
|
|
||
|
This document contains a listing of all features and modules that were removed
|
||
|
from RIOT at some point in time, mostly due to missing maintenance. The purpose
|
||
|
of this list is to have a reference point for reintegrating those features in
|
||
|
the future, if new interest arises or a new maintainer is found.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This list is **not** supposed to contain a change log of all the things that are
|
||
|
being removed from RIOT, but it should contain only full modules that are
|
||
|
removed without any alternative being merged at the same time. For example
|
||
|
things like the first `netdev` should not be put in this list, as a successor
|
||
|
(former `netdev2`) has been merged.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## How to read this list
|
||
|
|
||
|
For each high-level feature removed there should be one entry in this list. The
|
||
|
entries should comply to the following template:
|
||
|
|
||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {.md}
|
||
|
### path/feature_name [HASH of removal commit]
|
||
|
Author(s):
|
||
|
- author 1 <foo.bar@abc.com>
|
||
|
- author 2 <a.b@c.net>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Reason for removal:
|
||
|
- give a short and comprehensive argumentation why this feature was removed
|
||
|
- typical reasons are:
|
||
|
- feature is not maintained anymore
|
||
|
- lack of hardware so feature can not be tested (anymore)
|
||
|
- feature was never used and there is no reason for keeping it
|
||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
By putting the name of the removed feature and the commit hash in the same line,
|
||
|
one can very quickly find the commit using `get grep`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Listing the authors of the removed code is done for appreciation of their work.
|
||
|
This way, there names are never removed from the RIOT repository.
