Description Lars Vogel

With Bug 475944 we marked IPluginDescriptor for deletion but forgot to mark the following classes for deletion. We should also mark then for deletion. 

ILibrary
IPlatformRunnable
IPluginPrerequisite
IPluginRegistry

org.eclipse.core.runtime.IPlatformRunnable is marked for deletion already.

+1 to announcing the removal, but it cannot happen immediately right?  Needs th be announced with a time period for consumers to react?
