Removed plugins :
In this version we removed obsolete plugins, because they were based on software no longer existing or needed a sql backend and we decided they need to be rewritten using the now ldap backend of those softwares :
asterisk : old plugin not maintainable anymore based on the sql backend, but now asterisk has a ldap backend has well.
fax: old code based on the gofax software from gonicus, not maintained anymore upstream.
openstack-compute: openstack management interface changed and this plugin is no longer relevant
uw-imap : long gone imap server, nobody that whe know still use it.
