Obsolete some cache providers?

hazzik commented 6 months ago

Some of the cache providers are long dead:

SharedCache - Last release was in March 2009 (15 years ago as for now). The website stopped functioning in 2015/2016. CodePlex was shut down in July 2021. Luckily Internet Archive has the archive of the codeplex site and source code. Here suppose to be a copy of the source code, but the repo is empty.
Prevalence - even older. Last release in March 2005 (19 years ago). Copy of the source code is here.
Velocity - seems like research project by Microsoft that never made it to a release. It was later merged into AppFabric (using different assemblies/namespaces). Support for AppFabric has ended in Apr 12, 2022.

They are already obsoleted in a way: not published as NuGet packages. Do you mean deleting them from the source? Removing them from the documentation (only Prevalence is there)? Removing them from the binary package added on the GitHub Release?

We may include in this list the MemCache cache: it uses a very obsolete client. EnyimMemcached should be used instead.

All of these?

What I really wanted to achieve is to remove outdated binaries from the repository. Everything else is secondary.
