[DISCUSS] Remove SRA

Hi all,
I would propose to remove the SRA component from the codebase, starting from the current master branch e.g. the upcoming 5.0 release.

The reason is that, as far as I can tell, we have never heard about SRA deployments so my guess is that this has no adopters at all.
 From the other side, maintenance of the sources is not for free, especially with upgrades.

Honestly, I’m sorry to have to remove it: I think it’s an interesting piece of code, but unfortunately, it appears to be of no use.

Any objections?

Regards.
