Sequence->Seq

Speaking of deprecation... There should be a thorough review of everything marked deprecated in 2.8.

Anything that's been deprecated since 2.6.x should be removed. Anything deprecated since early 2.7.x should be considered for removal. Anything that wasn't in 2.7.x that is now in 2.8 and marked as deprecated should be removed (I've seen a few of these).

Maybe this can happen in two weeks (to fit when Martin said Sequence will be removed). I'll volunteer to do the work if no one else wants to.

As discussed on the main mailing list, I have reverted Sequence in all

scala.Sequence (both as a type and as a value) in the scala package,

these aliases in about two weeks, so that everybody has time to
prepare for the final release.

Agreed on all of these.

I'd be happy for you to do it, unless anybody else wants to?

Cheers

Please, can we remove:

@deprecated("use getOrElse instead")
def get[B >: A](default: B): B = this match {
case None => default
case Some(x) => x
}

I had a list somewhere, but that's the biggest.

Done for NetBeans plugin.
