[Trilinos-Announce] Trilinos code deprecation announcement

[Devine, Karen D]

Trilinos is announcing the deprecation of 37 features in 16 packages.  Full details of the deprecated features, including mitigations, are in the attached document.  All deprecated features have produced warnings in Trilinos builds since Trilinos v12.16.


The expected deprecation schedule is

  *   November 15, 2019:  Trilinos developers may begin removing deprecated code from Trilinos' develop branch
  *   December 4, 2019:  Trilinos release v13

Users can test their applications now without deprecated code by adding the following configuration flags to their Trilinos builds:
