[Opensim-dev] Deprecate OpenSim.Grid.InventoryServer and OpenSim.Grid.AssetServer?

[Melanie]

I'm not looking for a "big bang" change. What i want to establish is 
the _basic willingness_ to _at some future time_ drop the old grid 
servers.

Not a set of conditions and holding back on a commitment. We really 
need, as a team, to come to the point where we all say "Yes, let's 
get rid of the old servers _as soon as we can_". It's that agreement 
in principle I'm looking for, and that should not be toed to any 
conditions. Conditions are details that can be discussed and voted 
on when the time comes to actually drop a server. However, for the 
architectural decisions that have to be made at this time, it would 
be very helpful to have a "no overriding issues/concerns with 
eventually removing the old servers" vote.
