[Swift-user] Proposal to deprecate clustering feature - Please tell us if you use it

There has been a proposal to deprecate the Swift clustering feature some time in the next few months. The rationale is that it is largely superseded by the Coaster feature, and that it has received very little use, and that its presence complicates the code and increases the testing burden.

No decision to go ahead with the removal of clustering has been made; I advocate keeping it if users use it and want to keep doing so.

Please post a message here if you use it, and what your experience with it has been.

Thanks,

Mike
