There are a few distributions that still depend on Dancer2::Test - should we submit PRs to provide an alternative as part of deprecating it?
@cromedome I know of distros that will be broken by other deprecations. Please give me a couple of weeks to put something together that will give us a better view. I'm in favour of the change, but I don't want to feel like we behave like some other web frameworks. I, and others, have in the past put a lot of effort into helping plugin maintainers, and I'd prefer if we are seen as a framework that supports its contributors.

Absolutely. I remember how much work went into Plugin2. How can we help? I don't want us to be seen as unhelpful either.

I appreciate the desire to be nice, but wasn't this marked to be deprecated for already a long, long time?

Absolutely, just wanted a short time to try to judge the impact. There are a few dists that are affected, but most of what I'd call the primary plugins are OK, so all good from me.
I've sent PRs for Dancer2::Plugin::Sixpack and Dancer2::Plugin::Browser. Dancer2::Template::Caribou is @yanick's (wink-wink-nudge-nudge), and Dancer2::Plugin::Syntax::GetPost is one that xdg left for us. Dist::Zilla is giving me some fits with that, but I am going to release a new version of that shortly.
That being said, I feel ok merging this. @SysPete if you want to post other dists that you know will be affected, please post them here and we can divide and conquer perhaps.
And now Dancer2::Plugin::Syntax::GetPost is ready: https://github.com/PerlDancer/dancer2-plugin-syntax-getpost/pull/1
Merged, thanks everyone!
We're (well) past March now, when we could have hard deprecated these. Seems right before a 1.0.0 release.
