Drop Assetic

[Guite]

Since we use zasset (which is built above the Symfony Asset component) we should remove Assetic from the core.

[craigh]

since it is currently included since 1.4.0 we should perhaps schedule removal for 2.0.0?

[Guite]

Wouldn't this lead to more people starting using it? I think at the moment nobody is using Assetic (yet), so it could be advantageous getting rid of it before it becomes adopted?

[craigh]

yes, that would be a concern, but we have much tech in the Core that is @deprecated. We leave it for BC. Of course there is no way to know that "nobody is using it" (until we remove and someone complains 😉 ).

Postponed issue to 2.0.0.

here is a conversation about removing ascetic from symfony-standard (which is not the same as 'symfony', apparently). just FTR
